Roasted Tomato and Tuna Zoodles

This is a perfect example of a summertime meal. It’s light, it’s fresh, it’s full of seasonal flavor. This roasted tomato and tuna zoodle recipe will have you basking in all that amazing summertime deliciousness.

If you’re a pasta lover, zoodles are the way to go. You can get that pasta fix without all of the carbs. And luckily for you – we’ve got a bunch of zoodle recipes on the blog. Shrimp basil zoodles, zoodles and cauliflower garlic cream sauce, and Instant Pot pork and noodles just to name a few.

How do you even make zoodles? – you may be asking yourself. Great question! There are, of course, a few ways. But our favorite way is with a spiralizer.

Spiralizers allow you to turn a variety of vegetables into spaghetti, fettuccini and ribbon noodles, thus giving you a lot of room for creativity when adjusting your favorite recipes.

With a spiralizer, you can make an assortment of dishes including: pasta, casseroles, salad, soup and even pizza recipes. Prepping with a spiralizer is quick and saves you the time and stress of slicing and dicing vegetables on a cutting board (this is the old school way – totally doable, but not always the easiest.)

Whip up this recipe for a light summer lunch. It’d be great to take to work or eat under the shade of a tree with a friend.

However you do it, I promise you’re going to love it.
