Zucchini Noodles With a Grilled Peperonata Sauce

One of my favorite recipes to cook on my Bull Grill is Zucchini Noodles with a Grilled Peperonata and Sausage Sauce. This dish offers a healthy twist on classic pasta, featuring zucchini noodles as the star ingredient. A peperonata sauce is an Italian sauce that is made with grilled bell peppers as well as tomatoes. Not only does it cater to those seeking a low-carb alternative, but it’s also a fantastic way to incorporate more vegetables into your family’s diet.
