Zucchini ‘Spaghetti’

Most kids we know love twisting and turning their spaghetti onto their fork so it’s likely they’ll love to twist and turn their zucchini spaghetti too. For kids who are fussy with all things green try mixing in your zucchini spaghetti with some regular spaghetti to encourage their enjoyment and acceptance.

Nutrition note: A fun and simple way to increase your kid’s veggie intake, whether they know they’re eating zucchini ‘spaghetti’ bolognese or not.

Step 3

Add the zucchini spaghetti to the boiling water and cook for 2 minutes. -

    This sounds great! Would it work with other veg too? I’m thinking of eggplant, carrots, parsnip…
    Thanks!
