After introducing Zoodles to its menu last spring, Noodles & Company is expanding its offerings to include two new zucchini noodle-based items. Knowing that many people are looking for lighter, healthier, plant-powered options, Noodles & Company is introducing Zucchini & Asparagus with Lemon Sauce and Zucchetti in White Wine Garlic Sauce with Balsamic Chicken.
While the Zucchini & Asparagus with Lemon Sauce dish features fresh Roma tomatoes, roasted zucchini and a creamy, tangy sauce that's topped with toasted breadcrumbs and parsley, the Zucchetti in White Wine Garlic Sauce with Balsamic Chicken offers a mix of equal parts zucchini noodles and spaghetti noodles. These light, fresh and colorful takes on traditional pasta dishes offer intriguing ways for diners to add more vegetables to their plate.
