Sausage and Artichoke Zoodles

Servings: 2

Ingredients:

  • Zucchini (3-4 dependent on serving size)
  • Artichoke Hearts
  • Sausage of your choosing (just make sure it comes from a good source)
  • 1/2 tsp Ghee
  • Garlic (cloves or minced)
  • Cherry tomatoes (optional)
  • Red pepper flakes/additional seasonings (optional)

Instructions:

  1. First slice up sausage and start cooking in skillet (w/ a little ghee) *2 oz of Sausage = 1Protein and 1 Fat Unit
  2. Wash off zucchini and use any spiralizing tool to create “Zoodles” (I have a Ninja with a spiralizing attachment that is AMAZING) Once you have as many zoodles as you want- transfer them into the skillet
  3. Add in artichokes, minced garlic and tomatoes
  4. Cook to desired texture (I like them to stay crunchy)
  5. Add extra seasonings like red pepper flakes for added heat
