Raw Southwest Zoodle Bowl

I had a similar version of this at a local restaurant and had to immediately remake it. Raw zucchini noodles are the perfect vessel for any sauce. Zucchini’s in general are great for not only digestion, but this super veggie supports healthy circulation while boosting energy and improving thyroid and adrenal functions.

They absorb any flavor you put on them and the best part about turning these suckers into a noodle is avoiding any unnecessary simple carbs like white rice or pasta.
