Mediterranean zoodle stir-fry with feta cheese
I remember the first time I tried zoodles. My friend Maria, who's a total health nut, swore they were just as good as pasta. I was skeptical, naturally. But then she made this amazing Mediterranean stir-fry, and I was hooked! The light, fresh taste combined with the salty feta… oh man, it was a game-changer. I wasn't a big fan of zucchini growing up, but I think I like it. This dish is perfect for a quick weeknight dinner, and it's so versatile. Plus, it's a great way to sneak in some extra veggies. What does this mean for you? Health and joy!

The beauty of this recipe lies in its simplicity and adaptability. You can easily swap out the vegetables, add protein like grilled chicken or chickpeas, or adjust the seasonings to your liking. Feel free to experiment! Maybe you're not so in love with feta cheese? Just use another cheese. If you're feeling adventurous, try adding some sun-dried tomatoes or Kalamata olives for an extra burst of Mediterranean flavor. Make sure that you watch for grammatical errors though. They're easy to miss!

🍽 Ingredients

📖 Instructions

  1. Get Started: Grab your zuchinni. Wash 'em good. Don't want no dirt in your dinner now, do we?
  2. Zoodle Time: Alright, time to get zoodlin'! If you got a spiralizer, crank those zucchinis into noodles. No spiralizer? No worries! A regular vegetable peeler works just as well; just peel the zucchini into long, thin strips. Remember that the inner seedy part of the zucchini can be a little watery, so feel free to avoid using that part if you want drier zoodles.
  3. Prep the Veggies: Chop the cherry tomatoes in half. Mince the garlic – really fine. Nobody likes big chunks of garlic, trust me. Crumble the feta cheese if you haven't already. Set everything aside; we want to be ready to rock and roll!
  4. Heat the Skillet: Put your large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil. You want it nice and hot, but not smoking. If it starts smoking, you've gone too far, buddy.
  5. Sauté the Garlic: Toss in the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds, until fragrant. Keep it moving so it doesn't burn. Burnt garlic is the worst.
  6. Stir-Fry the Zoodles: Add the zoodles to the skillet. Stir-fry them for about 3-5 minutes, until they're tender-crisp. Remember, zoodles release water as they cook, so keep stirring to help the moisture evaporate. Nobody wants watery zoodles!
  7. Add the Tomatoes: Throw in the halved cherry tomatoes and continue to stir-fry for another 2 minutes, until the tomatoes are slightly softened.
  8. Season It Up: Season with salt, black pepper, and oregano. Don't be shy, but don't go overboard either. Taste and adjust as needed. A little pinch of red pepper flakes? Absolutely!
  9. Serve and Garnish: Remove the skillet from the heat. Divide the zoodle stir-fry among bowls. Crumble feta cheese over the top of each serving. Garnish with fresh basil leaves, if you’re feeling fancy.
  10. Eat and Enjoy: Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious, healthy Mediterranean zoodle stir-fry! Remember, food is about more than just sustenance; it's about joy. So savor every bite!
