Ingredients
  

2 large zucchinis, spiralized into zoodles

1 ripe avocado

1/4 cup Greek yogurt (or dairy-free alternative)

2 tablespoons fresh lime juice

1 clove garlic, minced

1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)

Salt and black pepper to taste

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1/2 cup corn (fresh, frozen, or canned)

1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped

Fresh cilantro, for garnish

Lime wedges, for serving

Instructions
 

Prep the Zoodles: Use a spiralizer or vegetable peeler to create zoodles from the zucchinis. Place them in a strainer and sprinkle with a little salt to draw out excess moisture. Let them sit while you prepare the dressing.

    Make the Creamy Dressing: In a mixing bowl, combine the ripe avocado, Greek yogurt, lime juice, minced garlic, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, and black pepper. Use a fork or a hand blender to mash and mix until you achieve a creamy and smooth consistency.

      Sauté the Zoodles: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add your zoodles and sauté for about 2-3 minutes just until slightly tender; be careful not to overcook them. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

        Combine the Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, gently combine the sautéed zoodles with cherry tomatoes, corn, and red onion. Drizzle the creamy avocado dressing over the top and toss until everything is well coated.

          Serve: Spoon the zoodle mixture into serving bowls. Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve with lime wedges on the side for an extra zing.
