This healthy zucchini noodle salad has all the flavors you love in a classic pasta salad but we've swapped in zoodles for wheat pasta, which makes the salad lighter, lower in carbs and gluten-free. Serve it with grilled chicken or fish for a light and healthy summer dinner.

Ingredients

  • 5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons red-wine vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh oregano
  • 2 teaspoons dijon mustard
  • ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper
  • 1 small shallot, chopped
  • 1 clove garlic, grated
  • 16 ounces spiralized zucchini noodles (see tip)
  • 3 cups halved cherry tomatoes
  • ⅓ cup pitted kalamata olives
  • ¾ cup shaved parmesan cheese, divided

Directions

  1. Whisk oil, vinegar, oregano, mustard, crushed red pepper, shallot and garlic in a large bowl. Add zucchini noodles, tomatoes, olives and half the Parmesan; toss gently to coat. Divide evenly among 4 bowls; sprinkle with the remaining Parmesan.
