Zucchini Bird's Nests

8/22/2015

 
Picture
These are such a fun way to eat the zucchini that's exploding in the garden! You need a spiralizer, but who doesn't have one of those? Ha ha ha.. If you don't, they're a great addition to a grain free life and under $30. 

You can try adding other veggies, too, that you might have left overs of. I've included a Gluten-free method below and a Grain-free one, as well. Enjoy!





3 Med. Zucchini (straight and fat is best)
Sea Salt
2 Pasture raised eggs
2/3 cup GF oat flour or
      2 Tbs. Tapioca starch
      2 Tbs. Coconut flour
      4 Tbs. Almond Flour
High Temp Oil for frying (I used avocado)

Picture
Spiralize your squash on the small setting. It should equal around 8 cups of finished raw spaghetti. 
Picture
Toss with several hefty pinches of sea salt. They will start to glisten as the liquid comes out. 


Let it sit for 30min to and hour. The more liquid that comes out the better your nests will be so try for an hour.
Picture
After the liquid comes out, drain and press the squash to release any last bits out. You may be surprised how much you can still get out.
Picture
Toss with your eggs and flour. Mix well.


Ready your fry pan with high temp cooking oil like avocado (400 degree smoke temp).
Picture
Make little nests in the hot oil and fry till golden on each side. Makes 7-8 nests.
