Low Carb Garlic Butter Shrimp Bowl

If you love the idea of shrimp and pasta together but would rather not have to deal with all the carbs, here's a zucchini shrimp scampi recipe just for you! Low carb garlic butter shrimp bowl is the perfect meal for family and friends.

 The shrimp are cooked in a garlic butter sauce so they are the perfect topping for spiralized veggies. Here I have used squash and mushrooms, but this recipe would work equally well with zucchini or any other veggie you prefer. I love the yellow color of the squash noodles- it really makes for an eye-catching dish!

Much like stir fry recipes, try to have all your ingredients ready before you start cooking. The cook time for the recipe is very short, so you will have this meal completed in no time. If you are cooking for non low-carb eaters, just cook up some noodles or other pasta for them. I love meals that are flexible and the whole family will enjoy!
