Zucchini Noodles with Creamy Lemon Chive Sauce

I finally invested (actually got for a birthday gift) the Veggetti! This unique kitchen tool is the latest Weight Watchers craze, and very simple cuts your veggies into long thin strips, creating veggie noodles!  It works pretty great, and is especially fun with zucchini. I whipped up the below flavorful side dish, that actually uses crunchy raw zucchini noodles!

Servings: 4
Serving Size: 3/4 cup
Points Plus: 2pp
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: n/a/
Level of Difficulty: Easy

Instructions
1 large zucchini, washed but not peeled
1 T lemon juice
1 T olive oil
1 small garlic clove, minced
1/4 cup plain, nonfat Greek yogurt
1/4 cup reduced fat sour cream
2 T chives, finely chopped
Salt + pepper to taste

Directions
Wisk together all of your ingredients besides the zucchini.

Follow the instructions on your Veggetti to cut your zucchini into small strips.  The tool allows you to cut in two different sizes, so choose your fav!  I used the larger size.  When your strips are cut lay them on a cutting board and cut them in 1/2 with a knife.  If you don't do this you will essentially have one super long zucchini noodle!

When your zucchini is cooked simply mix your strips with the sauce and enjoy cold (that's right people!).

Tip
If you do not have a Veggetti simply use a veggie peeler to cut your zucchini into strips. Or, cut your zucchini into chunks and top with this bright and summery sauce!
