"Lunched so hard on these CREAMY LEMON TAHINI DILL zoodles and sautéed GARLICKY SHRIMP. The dressing I used on these is one I make about every other week for salads. Well, turns out it makes a perfect sauce for zucchini noodles. This would be great for meal prep, just make the zoodles and dressing and add the dressing when you’re ready to eat!"
