Hi friends!
Time for another month of Recipe Redux! This month had a shape theme:
Get Your Fruits and Veggies in Shape
With produce galore, now’s a great time to enjoy lots of fruits and vegetables. Show us how you’re serving the bounty of gardens and orchards in shapes like ribbons, noodles, cut-outs, or other creative cuts.
I was hoping to have some curly dessert sweet potato fries to share with you guys but after a miserable fail, they’re gonna require a little more testing. So I decided to share this zoodle skillet instead. It’s one of my go-to dinners and can easily be customized based on what veggies you have on hand. I wish I had some summer sweet corn to add to this yesterday but I was fresh out. Next time!
Chicken Sausage Skillet with Zoodles
This recipe is super forgiving…so you don’t really need exact quantities but I did put some in the recipe below for you. Just know you can easily add more or less veggies and it will still turn out just fine.
Here’s what to do:

I love making zoodles! I just bought a new spiralizer and I’m trying to create cool recipes with that, used to use a vegetable shaver to make the noodles and let’s just say it was a bit messy. Will definitely have to try this recipe out!
