Ingredients
  

  • 8 ounces zucchini spirals
  • 8 ounces butternut squash spirals
  • cup olive oil
  • cup red wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 4 ounces cheddar cheese cubed
  • 4 ounces mozzarella cheese cubed
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
  • 4 ounces pepperoni cubed
  • ½ cup parmesan cheese
  • salt and pepper optional

Instructions
 

  • Place the butternut squash and zucchini spirals into a pot, and cover with water. Place on the stove over medium-high heat, and bring to a boil. Cook for 5-6 minutes until the “noodles” becomes more tender, but still have a bit of crunch to them.
  • Strain the veggie spirals, rinse with cool water, and place them in a large mixing bowl.
  • To the bowl with the veggie spirals, add in the cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, cherry tomatoes and pepperoni. Stir to combine the ingredients.
  • In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, red wine vinegar, Italian seasoning, garlic powder and salt and pepper (optional). Stir with a whisk to combine well.
  • Pour the olive oil mixture over the veggie mixture in the large bowl, and toss to coat.
  • Add the parmesan cheese to the mixture, and stir to combine.
  • Chill, and serve cold. Store uneaten “pasta” salad in an airtight container, this is an easy make ahead meal too.
