Lemon Parmesan Chicken with Zucchini Noodles

I am so excited to partner with Green Giant today and to work with their new Veggie Spirals for this dish! If you’re busy like the rest of us, these veggie spirals are a perfect swap-in for traditional pasta and are super convenient! You don’t need to grab your spiralizer and your veggies, it’s all ready to go for you!

Green Giant Veggie Spirals™ are made with only the vegetable, are naturally gluten-free, and come without sauce or seasoning, so you can prepare them just the way you like! They come in beet, butternut squash, carrot, and zucchini and are great for throwing together a quick and healthy meal. I know my non-cooking hubby will be pulling these out of the freezer when he has to cook for himself!!

These lemon garlic noodles are:

• Creamy
• Bright
• Flavorful
• Veggie Packed
• Low Carb
• A perfect healthy weeknight meal!
