Healthy carrot / zucchini "pasta" instructions
This is the most "difficult" and boring part of the preparation. You'll need a potato peeler and you have to peel each carrot (and/or zucchini) until it's so thin that you can't possibly peel it anymore. The time this takes depends on the size of the carrots but it's generally ~6 mins per carrot..
Once you're done with step one you'll have carrot (and/or zucchini) noodles! They may seem like a lot but they'll shrink in size later on..
Throw all of the "noodles" into a frying pan and cook for ~3-5 mins, until they're as soft as you like your pasta to be. You don't need to add any oil but you gotta stir and move them around a lot..
Turn off the heat and add your favorite sauce (that you've already prepared before starting with this recipe)..
Transfer to bowls..
Top with a generous amount of grated cheese (I find that the taste of the carrots is too strong without cheese) and enjoy!.
