Udon Zoodle Soup

This Udon Zoodle Soup has its roots in those delicious, aromatic, and unfortunately gluten-filled udon noodle soups you can find at pretty much any takeout place (where I am, anyway). Using spiralized zucchini instead of udon noodles gives Celiacs like me a tasty, healthy, and equally comforting alternative that’s also more suitable for a low-carb diet or anyone just trying to cram more veggies into their meals. It comes together in about 30 minutes, making it a great weeknight meal!
