If you don't love creamy goat cheese you can opt for fresh mozzarella. Voila, you have a Caprese Salad Zoodle Dish!

Tips & FAQ's:

Can I make this Zucchini Chevre recipe ahead of time?

Yes! But, as the zoodles marinate in the pesto, they will weep (excrete water). I like it because it softens the zucchini noodles and makes a sauce.

But, if your prefer a drier zoodle dish, check out his post on how to dry zucchini noodles by baking them.

Or, you can always lightly salt the zoodles and let them drain in a colander for 20-60 minutes. This adds some time to the finished recipe (of course).

How long will the Zucchini Chevre keep in the fridge?

These are good for 2-3 days chilled.

What low carb meals go well with the Zucchini side dish?

  • Creamy Tuscan Chicken
  • Mahi Mahi with Sweet Mustard Cream
  • Mozzarella Chicken
  • Slow Cooked Mediterranean Lamb
  • Chocolate Lamb Chops
  • Eggplant Lasagna
  • Grilled Lamb Chops

I think that's all for the Low Carb Zucchini Chevre Recipe...
