Pesto Zucchini Noodles

As a mom to a small child I’ve hidden more than a few veggies into my daughter’s meals. Remember my hidden veggie applesauce that is STILL all the rave!?! There are times to hide the veggies and then there are times to show them front and center in a new fun way! Zoodles are one of those ways for us! Mixed with some other fan favorites, these Zoodles with Pesto Shrimp, kalamata olives and marinated artichokes were a big hit!

How Do I Make This Meal Whole30/Paleo

To make this Whole30 Zoodles recipe whole30 compliant, check your ingredients and you can easily make this dish either Whole30 or Paleo. First you’ll want to choose a dairy free pesto then make sure your olives and marinated artichokes have clean ingredients and you are good to go!
