Spiralized Zucchini Salad with Mushrooms & Basil

Andreea Fegan, www.LittleBitesOfJoy.com
This spiralized zucchini salad with mushrooms and basil is the best in the last few weeks of summer when everything is in its peak. It's flavorful and filling! 

Ingredients
  

Veggies

  • spiraled zucchini noodles
  • a handful of sliced mushrooms
  • 1/2 red onion, sliced thin
  • artichoke hearts packed in water

Fat

  • drizzle of good olive oil

Condiments

  • fresh rosemary and fresh basil leaves
  • drizzle of good balsamic vinegar or balsamic glaze, optional

Instructions
 

  • First, spiralize the zucchini using your preferred method (veggie peeler or spiralizer both work great)
  • Second, sautéed the mushrooms and onions until they soften. You can use just water, or a little oil spray. The onions should caramelize and the mushrooms should darken. This takes about 5 minutes or so.
  • Assemble the salad: layer the zoodles, mushrooms, onions, artichoke hearts, herbs, drizzle of oil and balsamic and enjoy! I like to also add some chili flakes or paprika to pretty much everything, feel free to do the same.
