Craving pasta? Well, even though you've stepped up your workout routine, it's not time to start carb loading. Here you can swapp your usual pasta for a low-carb and highly nutritious version made with zucchini!

Veggie Pasta With Italian Chicken Sausage

2 small zucchini
2 tablespoons extra- virgin olive oil
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 garlic clove, diced
1 cup diced tomatoes
1 teaspoon oregano
½ pound cooked Italian chicken sausage, sliced into small pieces
¼ cup grated Parmesan, to taste

Using a vegetable peeler and turning as you go, slice zucchini into ribbons. In a skillet, over medium heat, sauté zucchini in 1 tablespoon of oil until it's soft and the edges are clear. Add salt and pepper to taste. Over medium heat, heat 1 tablespoon of oil in another pan, and add garlic. Sauté for a minute, and then add the tomatoes and oregano. Simmer for a few minutes, and then stir in the sausage. Spoon sauce over the zucchini. Sprinkle with Parmesan to taste.
