Ingredients

Scale

Vegetables

  • 2 medium zucchinis, spiralized
  • 2 medium carrots, spiralized
  • 1 cup bell peppers (red or yellow), thinly sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced

Seasonings & Sauces

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce or vegetarian Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon red chili flakes (optional)

Fresh Herbs & Cheese

  • 1/4 cup fresh basil, cilantro, or parsley, chopped
  • 1/3 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (vegetal)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Vegetables: Wash and spiralize the zucchinis and carrots to create long noodle-like strands. Slice the bell peppers into thin strips and mince the garlic and ginger.
  2. Heat the Pan and Oil: Warm a tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and ginger, cooking until fragrant but not browned.
  3. Cook the Vegetables: Add the bell peppers and sauté for about 3 minutes until slightly tender. Then add the spiralized zucchini and carrots, cooking for another 4 to 5 minutes while stirring frequently to keep the noodles firm yet tender.
  4. Season the Veggie Noodles: Sprinkle soy sauce or vegetarian Worcestershire sauce and red chili flakes if using. Stir well to evenly distribute the flavors and cook for an additional minute to meld the tastes.
  5. Add Fresh Herbs and Cheese: Remove the pan from heat and toss in fresh herbs like basil or cilantro. Finish by sprinkling a generous handful of shredded mozzarella cheese (vegetal), allowing it to melt slightly for a creamy touch.

Notes

  • Use a spiralizer to achieve a fun, noodle-like texture.
  • Do not overcook the noodles; keep them slightly crisp for the best texture and nutrition.
  • Sauté garlic and ginger first to build a strong flavor base.
  • Add fresh herbs at the end to preserve their bright fragrance and color.
  • Adjust seasoning gradually while cooking to suit your taste preferences.
