Zucchini "Pasta"

Everyone should go ahead and go to Amazon and get themselves one of these:

It is a julienne peeler, and it allows you to make zucchini pasta!!!

This was our dinner last night. We mixed Mushroom Marinara sauce with a little bit of light Alfredo sauce, and heated up some Ikea Swedish meatballs (I love those things) and tossed it with the zucchini pasta! You peel the zucchinis with the peeler, and it makes the coolest noodle sized strips! So easy. Then you just toss the "pasta" in olive oil over medium heat for about 5-10 minutes till a bit tender. Ours was a little Al dente, I like a little bit of crunch so it was fantastic. Believe me I don't really like the taste of straight zucchini so this was fantastic, it's really just a way to get the sauce and meatballs in your mouth and feel like you're eating pasta. I would say use 3 big zucchinis for 2 people, the strips shrink a little as they cook. And the garlic bread kind of negates the "pasta" I realize, but we only had 1 piece each and it just kicked the whole meal up to GREAT. Oh and those strawberries, not the least bit tart, just sweet. AH now I want to eat this again for dinner...
