Ingredients

  • 1 or 2 zucchini per person
  • Fresh basil leaves - I used about 5 for two people
  • 1/2 lemon
  • 1 tomato per person
  • A little sea salt
  • A little olive oil

Directions

  1. Use a vegetable peeler to make the fettuccine noodles. Stop peeling when you get down to the seeds. Dice the center portion of the zucchini and add it to the bowl along with the noodles. Chop the tomatoes and add them to the bowl. Slice the basil leaves as small as possible and add to the bowl. Squeeze the 1/2 lemon. Add a little olive oil. Sprinkle with a little salt. You can add a little garlic if desired. Mix it up and serve. The longer it sits, the softer the noodles become.
