Everyone has heard about this new zoodle trend. But have you ever tried making it? I think not. I’ve always wanted to try making zoodles, but never got around to it because being a college student gets in the way sometimes.

This was my first time making zoodles and I can assure you that it definitely won’t be the last time. I was seconds away from ordering takeout until I realized I should probably double check the fridge before I spend money. After evaluating the fridge, I knew there was great potential for dinner. So, before you pick up your phone for delivery, try making this recipe.

This is the perfect opportunity for you to try an easy and extremely satisfying zoodle recipe. Trust me, you’ll definitely impress all of your friends with this no-brainer dish (here is another awesome zoodle dish if you still can’t get enough).
