I can't take credit for coming up with this idea. It's another one that I saw on mariahealth.blogspot.com. I just really liked it and it's so easy. If you are trying to replace grains with vegetables, like I am, then this is a recipe for you.
4 zucchini (green)
2 T. butter
Take a vegetable peeler and peel the dark green skin off of the zucchini. Cut the ends off and discard. Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Grate the zucchini into the pan in long strips using your peeler, turning the zucchini as you go to make it even. The strips will resemble linguine. Peel until you get to the seeds and then discard and go to the next zucchini. Saute the strips in the melted butter until the edges are translucent and the strips are soft. Top with your favorite marinara sauce. I find that 4 good sized zucchini feeds two adults.
