Now, this is showing off the spiralizer at its best. DH didn't realize there was no pasta.
Made a half recipe of this. Used spinach as the green. Was generous with the sambal oelek.
Takes a bit of prep time, then comes together really quickly.
Good, altogether.

(Spiralizing wastes way too much veg for my tastes.)
