Enjoying Food: Zucchini Pasta Pad Thai

7/22/2014

This is one of my FAVORITE recipes that I eat at least once a week. It sounds complicated but it's SO quick and easy to make! And it's absolutely DELICIOUS! And of course, you can sub zucchini noodles for Shirataki 0 calorie noodles or actual pasta if you are one of the lucky people who can eat tons of carbs. I am not one of those people (yet) so I am always making huge batches of zucchini noodles. All you need is a spiralizer, which is craaaazy easy to use even though it looks difficult. You get a HUGE bowl of zucchini noodles (180g) for only 29 calories. Whaaaat?!?! Check out the macros on this recipe! *_*

ZUCCHINI PASTA PAD THAI
224 kcal -- 3F / 12C / 39P

Ingredients:
- 180g spiralized zucchini
- garlic powder, salt, pepper
- 2 tbsp (12g) PB2
- 1-2 tbsp bragg's liquid aminos 
- lime juice
- 5 oz grilled chicken breast







Directions:
1. Heat up pan on stove to medium heat and spray it with nonstick spray. 
2. Put in 1-2 tbsp bragg's liquid aminos and zucchini noodles.
3. Cook zucchini noodles to desired consistency. I like mine between crunchy and soft, kind of in the middle. Add a dash of garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
4. Shred up the chicken and throw that in the pan when the zucchini is almost done, to warm up the chicken and absorb the flavors.
5. Transfer to bowl. Add a couple squirts of lime juice and top with PB2. Enjoy!!

I just randomly found your IG which led me to your blog...after reading your blog I am sooo intrigued/excited in your journey and posts. I can relate to you so much and have always known about iifym but barely decided to track my macros in the last month. All of your information is extremely useful and I just wanted to take a minute to thank you for sharing all of this! Please keep it going and I can't wait to see what's next!

Since discovering this recipe, I have eaten it almost everyday! I use prawns and chicken and it's ruddy scrumptious! I also want to thank you for talking about reverse dieting!

What would the macros for this recipe be if you only counted direct macros and left off the PB2.
