Zucchini noodle recipes taste simply irresistible. They also have significantly fewer calories than conventional pasta dishes and provide plenty of healthy vitamins, minerals and fiber.

Did you prepare too much? The sauce will keep for a while. However, the zucchini will get mushy after reheating. Don't forget the lemon juice, because without it the avocado sauce will turn brown.
You should not keep them longer than one day. If you have some left over, just make a bowl the next day. You can use the dip as a sauce over the bowl ingredients. This tastes really delicious.
Freezing doesn't work well, unfortunately, making the dip mushy and slimy.
When in doubt, always prepare a little too little avocado pasta than too much. If the sauce runs out, you can fortunately mix it again within 5 minutes.
