I swapped out traditional noodles with Zucchini Noodles and used Mazola® Corn Oil to make this better for you.

I was inspired to make this recipe because February is Heart Health Month. I’ve been trying to incorporate better-for-you recipes like this into my dinner routine.
I’ve been swapping out my recipes that use noodles and replacing them with spiralized veggies instead to lighten them up.
I’ve also swapped out olive oil with Mazola Corn Oil since it is an all-purpose, cholesterol free cooking oil that is a smart heart-healthy* choice for your family. *See Mazola.com for more information on the relationship between corn oil and heart health.
I like it because it has a variety of uses include baking, grilling, sautéing, stir frying, or mixing up a marinade or dressing.

Mazola Corn Oil also has a high smoke point of 450 degrees Fahrenheit, which is perfect for making this recipe since everything is sautéed over a high heat.
A lot of home cooks don’t realize that all cooking oils have a smoke point, and if you exceed that it can affect the way your food tastes as well as the nutritional value.
But hey, maybe you already knew this! 🙂 Alright now let’s get into the making of this recipe!
