I had already left England by the time Courgetti became a thing – so I was introduced to them as Zoodles! I love the name but I always want to add extra ooooooo’s because, to me, they are that exciting! You can use any sauce with them but we LOVE this tomato sauce, it just goes so well & all in all, it creates a pretty light but filling lunch or dinner! Its a quick meal that keeps you feeling healthy when you don’t have much time to dedicate to cooking in the daytime or evening!
