Zoodle Salad Bowls or Jars💚
Do you love noodles but they don't love you?
I'm half Italian and I love me some pasta but... it doesn't serve me well in how I feel after I eat it. So when we discovered a plant based replacement, we were over the moon and back!
This guilt free yummy noodle bowl or jar is super easy and versatile for both meat and plant eaters. This dish as with most of TWH's recipes is meant to be 'KISSED' (keep it super simple every day) proof;-) It's very basic utilizing spiralized zucchinis aka 'zoodles' as the base to begin creating your own delicious and nutritious masterpieces!
You can use zoodles in any dish that you love traditional pasta in. They are delicious with marinara sauce and meatballs, added to chicken soup after it's heated to retain their chewy texture and great in salads or served as a side dish with a drizzle of olive oil, fresh minced garlic and chopped basil ~ YUM😋
They also make a chewy & crunchy noodle salad too.
I have included 2 salad options to serve and 2 choices of dressings for variety and you will also learn how easy it is to make your own tasty and tangy dressings in minutes!
It's also the perfect opportunity to add a variety of nutrient dense colorful add-ins to create a rainbow which is a fun and easy way to get added phytonutrients, antioxidants, vitamins and minerals.

About Me
My passion about health started in my teens when I first hand saw the effects of how illness can wreck havoc in a family growing up with parents who had serious health issues. I too struggled with losing weight & developed an eating disorder that I was able to heal by educating myself on healthier habits. It’s amazing what our bodies can do when we learn to take care of them like God intended. These experiences & challenges fueled my passion to be a life long student in pursuit of learning how to create healthier lifestyles where one can thrive at their optimal best. As a mother of 3 children & a wife of a traveling husband, I quickly learned how to implement healthy habits on the go so that I could be my healthy best for my family. This has evolved into my health coaching business Thriving With Health where I coach people to integrate simple & fun healthy 'bites’ throughout their day even on their most busiest & challenging ones. You are never too busy to take care of your health & I can show you how. Everyone has busy lifestyles and living at their optimum best is not only doable but can be fun as well!
