2 garlic cloves, minced or pressed
Salt and pepper, to taste
Pinch of dried oregano
1/3 cup pitted kalamata olives, halved
2 tablespoons sun-dried tomatoes in oil
3 oz crumbled feta cheese
Juice of 1/2 lemon
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add chopped shallot and sauté for about 5 minutes, until tender.
- Add garlic and cook for 30 seconds, until fragrant.
- Add spiralized zucchini noodles, increase heat to medium-high, and season with salt, pepper, and oregano.

Notes
Top with grilled chicken, shrimp, or chickpeas for extra protein.
Swap feta for goat cheese for a creamier texture.
Add fresh herbs like parsley or basil before serving.
Toast pine nuts or almonds for added crunch.
Reheat leftovers quickly in a skillet to avoid sogginess.
