This is the perfect Monday night dinner for those of us that tend to carb-load on the weekends. The high fiber zucchini pasta undoubtedly makes this a guilt-free meal. We topped the vegetable pasta off with salmon to provide heart healthy omega-3's, protein, B vitamins and vitamin D. These nutrients add an array of health benefits to our easy 'get back on the healthy track' dinner.
