Makes 2 servings
28 ounces (about 4 medium) zucchini
8 ounces (about 16) raw large shrimp, peeled, tails removed and deveined
1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup Clean & Hungry
Marinara Sauce (see below)
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
1. Preheat the oven to 375 F. Lay a large piece of heavy-duty foil on a baking sheet and spray with nonstick spray.
2. Using a spiral vegetable slicer, cut zucchini into spaghetti-like noodles. (If you don’t have a spiral veggie slicer, peel zucchini into super-thin strips, rotating the zucchini after each strip.) Roughly chop for shorter noodles.
3. Place zucchini noodles in the center of the foil and top with shrimp. Sprinkle with seasonings. Top with marinara sauce and Parmesan.
4. Cover with another large piece of foil. Fold together and seal all four edges of the foil pieces, forming a well-sealed packet.
5. Bake for 25 minutes, or until zucchini noodles have softened and shrimp are fully cooked.
6. Cut packet to release hot steam before opening entirely.
7. Transfer packet contents to a large bowl, and toss to mix.
