Ingredients

  • 4 medium-sized zucchini, spiralized
  • 2 cups cherry tomatoes, sliced in half
  • 2 cobs corn (or 1 cup frozen corn, defrosted)
  • 1 cup bocconcini cheese, sliced in half
  • 2 cups Arugula

Avocado sauce

  • 1 ripe avocado
  • 1/3 cup cilantro
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 jalapeno pepper, seeds and ribs discarded
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Shrimp

  • 1 lb shrimp
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp dried basil

Instructions

  • Mix all ingredients together for shrimp marinade and marinate shrimp for 5-10 minutes. Preheat BBQ to med-high heat.
  • Meanwhile, using a spiralizer, spiralize zucchini and place in a large bowl. Prepare cherry tomatoes and bocconcini. Blend all ingredients for avocado sauce and set aside.
  • Rub corn with a bit of olive oil and grill for 10 minutes, turning once. Alternatively, defrost frozen corn and add to bowls. Halfway through corn's cooking time, add shrimp skewers to the grill and cook for 2 min per side. Remove corn and shrimp from grill and start to assemble bowls.
  • Toss zucchini noodles, cherry tomatoes, arugula and bocconcini cheese with as much avocado sauce as you desire (may be less than what recipe makes if you don't like soggy noodles). Divide noodles among four pasta bowls, then top with shrimp and grilled corn cut off the cob. Serve and enjoy!
  • Note: You can make noodles ahead of time using your spiralizer - store in a large plastic bag up to one day before making recipe.
