2 Tbls. Pureed Garlic Scape (if you don't have access to garlic scapes, just use one clove of good garlic minced.)

2 Tbls. Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Salt and pepper to taste.

Fresh grated Parmesan or Romano Cheese (optional)

Preparation:

In a medium-size skillet add the olive and chopped garlic or garlic scapes and cook for about a minute. Add the shrimp and let it cook for about 5 minutes or until done. Add the zoodles stir well and cover. Turn the heat off and let the zoodles steam to cook for a few minutes. Stir and top with a sprinkle of parmesan or Romano cheese, salt, and pepper, if you like, and enjoy.
