Zucchini Pasta or Fresh Noodles

Roasted sweet potato asparagus pasta is light and fresh! This recipe uses the summer's zucchini as a noodle, and has a comfort food bite of sweet potato. I know, I enjoy sweet potato year round, but sweet potatoes are generally a cool weather thing for me. They kinda go along with all the autumn and winter squash.

I learned how to use the mandoline and the spiralizer during Chef Mark Reinfeld's vegan chef immersion course. I have since used the mandoline often with a client, and the spiralizer is my new favorite tool in my own kitchen. 

I could eat this spiralized noodle dish weekly, all summer long!
