Zucchini noodles have been a big thing for a few years now and I get why. They are perfect for keto pasta, dishes, or even for people with a gluten sensitivity. Grab some fresh zucchini and spiralize it yourself or buy some already spiraled zucchini.
The spiralized zucchini in this dish is a soft yet crunchy alternative for pasta dishes. The cream sauce I made for this tastes unbelievable and bacon is just the perfect topping for this to bring all the ingredients together!
