  • ¼ tsp sea salt

  • ½ tsp dried basil

  • ½ tsp dried oregano

  • fresh pepper, to taste

  • a few shakes of red pepper flakes, to taste

  • ½ cup almond flour or coconut flour

  2. Cut the tops and bottoms off the zucchinis.

  3. Shred the zucchinis.

  4. Add the salt to the zucchini and sit for a few minutes to allow the fluid to come out.
