Using Zucchini To make Noodles

I know that when you are making a recipe that involves things like zucchini it can be difficult to know what size you should be grabbing. For this shrimp alfredo recipe with zoodles, you will want to use 2 medium zucchinis per serving(this recipe makes 4 servings). A medium zucchini will net you roughly 2 cups of zucchini noodles,which has just 33 calories, and just 4 net carbs (6 grams of total carbohydrates and 2 grams of fiber) per medium zucchini.

To make zucchini noodles you do need a Zoodlespiralizer, there are quite a few different options that you have for this, aKitchenAid Mixer spiralizerattachment, a handheldspiralizer and a counter topspiralizer are a few options, but just go with what works best for you.

Notes

Serving size in this recipe for the zoodles is roughly 1 cup of zoodles, which is 1 zucchini but also depends on the size of your zucchini that you use.

We always end up with extra sauce, if you are looking to lower the calorie count, then lower the amount of alfredo sauce you use on top of your zoodles.
