    One-pot meals are efficient at it's best, and zoodles always make them stellar. Even little kids will like to eat something that is reminiscent of spaghetti; the big ones somehow find ways to enjoy it too.

    So, get on with the spiralizer movement and use it regularly for all sorts of vegetable Paleo noodles. It is truly the best Keto pasta you can get anywhere!

    Keto Zucchini Noodles with Tomato-Basil Sauce

    Zucchini is such a lovely vegetable, though technically it is a fruit as it comes from a flower, which is edible by the way - if you have them in the season, just toss them right in at the end of cooking.

    Mostly you will find them with green skins, but if you can find yellow-skinned zucchini choose it, or mix the two together to add a sunny flair to your dish. Tomatoes are called for in this dish too and use whatever you can find, again, you can mix it up with heirloom varieties for visual interest.

    This meal is brilliantly satisfying on its own, but if you would like to add some more greens to fill your plate, then oven-roasted broccoli is highly recommended to accompany this dish.

    If you are really watching your carb intake, then baked portobello mushrooms are the winning choice at just 2 grams per portion and you can complete the recipe from start to finish while you are cooking your zucchini noodles.
