I’ll be honest, the first time I swapped pasta for zucchini noodles, I thought I’d miss the carbs. But then I tossed those spiraled ribbons in creamy avocado pesto, and wow, it turned into one of my favorite low carb vegetarian recipes. The texture feels fresh, the flavor’s bold, and the best part—you don’t feel heavy afterward. This dish checks so many boxes at once. It’s one of those low carb zucchini recipes that actually satisfies, it sneaks in the heart-healthy fats from avocado, and it’s quick to make. In fact, you could be twirling a forkful in less than fifteen minutes. I make it on nights when I want something light but still filling. Or on days when I tell myself I should eat more greens (which is pretty often, honestly). I’ve tried a lot of healthy quinoa recipes, and while this one doesn’t even need grains, it still belongs in that family of meals that leave you energized. Think of it as a zucchini noodles recipe that doubles as comfort food. It lands perfectly on the list of Low Carb Healthy Recipes, and honestly, healthy low carb recipes don’t get more simple than this. Plus, if you’ve been searching for avocado recipes healthy enough to feel good about, this one’s going to make you smile.
