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!

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.
