Thai Zucchini Noodle Salad

This post may contain affiliate links. Please read my privacy policy.

Let’s talk zoodles…you know, noodles made out of zucchini. I got a spiralizer back when I started Whole30 and I fell in love. Zoodles are a great noodle replacement and, with such a mild flavor, you can put them into just about anything. My favorite right now is making Thai zucchini noodle salad to replace the yummy sesame noodles I typically get.

So, just like zucchini carpaccio, you don’t actually cook the zucchini for this recipe. However, if you want the zoodles a little softer, feel free to toss them in a pan for a minute or two. Just remember that zucchini cooks very quickly.

Thai Zucchini Noodle Salad Ingredients:

4 cups zoodles
1 tsp dark sesame oil
1/3 cup rice vinegar
1/3 cup coconut aminos
1 Tbsp fish sauce
2 Tbsp lime juice
2 Tbsp nut butter
1 Tbsp honey
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp red pepper flakes
1 bell pepper, thinly sliced
1/2 cup cilantro, chopped
Sesame seeds {optional}

Let’s Make It:

1) In a small bowl, whisk together sesame oil through red pepper flakes.

2) In a bowl, combine zoodles and bell pepper slices. Pour dressing over top and toss to combine. Mix in cilantro. Serve topped with sesame seeds if desired.

Did I mention that this recipe is paleo if you skip those sesame seeds? Yep! So, this makes a fantastic paleo replacement for your typical take out order. Plus, with no cooking involved, it is a great summer recipe because you won’t have to heat up the house while cooking.

I eat these on their own or sometimes I will toss some grilled chicken for a complete meal. Either way, they taste amazing and are so good for you!

What are your favorite take out recipes to make at home? Have you tried swapping zoodles for regular pasta yet?
