okay, so its not PASTA, its more like vegetables-sliced-so-thin-they-look-like-pasta...but your mouth wont know the difference, i promise. i read a lot of food blogs, and THIS recipe idea revolutionized the way i look at preparing my veggies, especially when i crave for pasta!

Wash the vegetables (zucchini, squash, and carrot), then dry. Peel the entire vegetable
Use a julienne peeler to form noodle shapes from the zucchini, squash, and carrot.
Steam the noodles.
Once cooked, place the noodles in a bowl and top with freshly grated parmesan cheese and some lemon juice.

takes about 15 minutes to go from refrigerator to plate, its totally worth it, and a LOT less calories than regular pasta. BON APPETITE!
