Serving Size:
1/2 cup
Serves:
4 Ingredients:
- 1 medium zucchini (about 1 1/2 cups after cutting)
- 1 large carrot (about 1 1/2 cups after cutting)
- 1 teaspoon olive or vegetable oil (or use cooking spray)
- Optional: 1/4 teaspoon pepper, dash salt
Instructions:
- Wash hands.
- Wash zucchini and peel carrot; cut off ends. Using a vegetable peeler, shave the zucchini and carrot into ribbons by moving the peeler back and forth.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. (Or lightly coat pan with cooking spray.)
- Add the vegetable ribbons, stir; cover with a tight-fitting lid and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until vegetables are tender but not overcooked.
- Remove from heat, add pepper and salt, if desired, and serve immediately.
- Option: To make vegetable coins instead of ribbons, cut zucchini and carrot into thin slices. Add 1/4 cup water to the pan; cover and cook 5 to 8 minutes.
Preparation tip:
- To make vegetable coins instead of ribbons, cut zucchini and carrot into thin slices. Add ¼ cup water to the pan; cover and cook 5 to 8 minutes.
Tips:
- Colorful. Low in calories. Fun to make and eat. What more could you want from a vegetable?
- Look for medium size fruit with skin that is shiny and free of pitting. It may look scratched, but shouldn’t have soft spots.

Howdy, i read your blog occasionally and i own a similar
one and i was just curious if you get a lot of spam responses?
If so how do you reduce it, any plugin or anything you
can advise? I get so much lately it's driving me mad so any assistance is very much appreciated.
