    Zoodles and Yoodles with Garlic
    Kevin Lee Jacobs (www.kevinleejacobs.com)

    Ingredients for 1 large or 2 modest servings
    2 zucchini, each no longer than 8 inches in length
    2 yellow squash, 5-8 inches in length
    2 tablespoons unsalted butter
    1 tablespoon olive oil (or the oil of your choice)
    2 cloves garlic, minced
    Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper — a generous pinch of each
    2 teaspoons minced parsley
    2 tablespoons shredded Parmesan, Romano, or Asiago cheese

    Special Equipment: a julienne peeler

    1. Slice off the stem and blossom ends of the zucchini and yellow squash. Using the julienne peeler, peel the squash until you reach the seed-filled cores. Save the cores for soup, or for raw eating.

    2. Heat the butter and oil in a skillet set over a medium flame. When the butter melts, add the garlic, and saute for 15 seconds. Then add the julienne strips of squash, and saute until just heated through — 60-90 seconds.

    3. Divide the squash between 2 plates, and top with the parsley and cheese. Serve immediately.

    I through something together the other week, and thought it came out amazing. Sliced up some zucchini, threw it in a glass baking dish with tomato sauce, onions and some homemade meatballs my mom gave me (You could use whatever meat you want or have on hand) and topped it off with some low fat shredded mozzarella. Baked it for 20 mins to a half an hour on like 350 (until zucchini seemed cooked though, also saved some of the cheese to put on towards the end actually) It was so easy and me and my husband loved it. Way healthier than if I would have used pasta or something instead.

    I like them raw and made this for dinner last night - it was delicious with some charred lamb:

    Makes 2 large servings at approx 80 calories/serving

    Ingredients:
    3 small zucchini
    approx 3 - 4 tablespoons low fat Greek yoghurt
    1 - 2 red chillies, depending on how spicy you like it, finely chopped
    squeeze of lemon juice
    large pinch sea salt

    Grate zucchini and put them in a colander over the sink. Add the salt and mix in with your hands. Leave for 30 minutes, for the liquid to drain off. Lightly squeeze the zucchini then mix with the yoghurt, chillies and lemon juice.

    I just made this but with zucchini instead of the cauliflower (cook for a few minutes with the dried spices before adding the tomatoes and chickpeas, and don't add the extra water): http://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2011/mar/03/cauliflower-chickpea-curry-recipe?INTCMP=SRCH
