I hope everyone had a great 4th of July holiday! Did you do anything fun? We didn’t do much, had a nice long weekend, worked out, relaxed and ate food.  I got some rib-eye’s to grill last night and they were perfect! We actually had a completely Whole 30 dinner (unintentionally) and it was delicious!

If I ever do a Whole 30 again and think it’s boring, I’ll remember this dinner!

And speaking of Whole 30, this recipe just so happens to be Whole 30 compliant!

I was looking for something light to make for lunches for my husband and I last week, and I knew I wanted to use my spiralizer to make zucchini noodles.  I love zucchini noodles, or “zoodles” as they are referred to.  They make such a great gluten-free and low-carb alternative to regular noodles, and they were the perfect base for this light and healthy recipe.

This Zoodles Taco Spaghetti is perfect if you’re looking for something easy, light, gluten-free and healthy.  This is low in fat (without the avocado) and fairly low in carbs as well.  And it was simple to make since I only used one pan! Don’t you love one-pan meals?

This recipe is also Whole 30 compliant, so if you’re looking for a simple Whole 30 meal this Zoodles Taco Spaghetti is perfect! With plenty of flavor from the spices and veggies, this makes for a healthy, tasty recipe!
