Zucchini fettucini
- Estimate one medium-sized zucchini per person.

- Toss the zucchini in a hot sauce of your choice and serve immediately.
- If you aren’t serving your zucchini with a hot sauce then boil half a gallon (a couple of liters) of salted water in a large pot and parboil the zucchini slices for a minute.
- Drain the water and add olive oil or a knob of butter. Salt and pepper to taste and stir.
Tip!
Switch it up a little! Shredded chicken makes a great substitute for ground beef.

Embrace the bacon, nuts, avocado, coconut butter, olives,...keep the carbs low, get your natural fats high up, and your sugar cravings will go away.
Admit it, girl....you are a sugar addict. Come clean...get the sugar out of your life. Get the sweet taste out of your life. Start to try to enjoy other flavors...like full fat cream in coffee...or just plain herbal tea without anything else.
I'm going to a get together in a couple of days. They're having pizza. Should I just eat the toppings?
Input appreciated.
Yes, the topping should normally be OK...avoid the rest. :)
I used just half tbsp of thyme and Greek yogurt mix with cream instead of sour cream because I didn't have available at home.
No extra salt, the feta cheese has enough for my taste.
