If you’re following me for a while, you know I went through a zoodle stage – zucchini noodles that is. I used to spiralize them, then I started using my julienne peeler. I made it so many different ways – from cheese zoodles with marinara, to pesto zoodles with salmon. This one is for the tuna lover’s and it pairs wonderfully with the traditional pasta sauce, puttanesca!
