The heart of the winter is here, and this year we have freezing temperatures with tons of snow. While it is pretty and all, I am already looking forward to the spring and colors, and warm weather.
To bring some of those colors on my plate, I made the zucchini pasta, with a little twist that brought into it some nice heat taste and, color wise. 
I added a seeded and chopped chili pepper into the zucchini, and to bring more color, I added some bell peppers. Instead of boiling them, I sauteed them in a pan with a little garlic. If you want more color to your product while it is on the saute pan, use half butter with half oil instead of all olive oil. 
To add flavor to the veggie pasta these are many different choices to use, with salt and pepper, to get variety. From red or green pesto to red curry paste, to home-made or store-bought dressings, the possibilities are endless. 
This is a great side dish or to be used as the main item of the meal. The Parmesan crusted deep fried brussels sprouts would be a great addition to a meat-free meal. 
Hope you will enjoy it as much as I did. 
'Till next time
~ Cheers!
