Can I prepare this dish in advance?

Absolutely! You can prepare it in advance, store it in an airtight container, and refrigerate it until ready to serve. Gently reheat on the stovetop when ready to serve. Enjoy!

Does this dish freeze well?

Unfortunately, we don't recommend freezing the zucchini noodles. They will lose their texture and won't taste the same. They can, however, be stored in the fridge for a few days.

Is zucchini Keto-friendly?

Zucchini is a low-carb veggie you can eat while doing Keto. They are an excellent source of fiber and other essential nutrients your body needs on a daily basis. However, just like other low-carb veggies, zucchinis do contain a small amount of carbs.
