Made with Zoodles instead of actual pasta, the dish puts a healthy twist on comfort food. The new Shrimp Scampi dish from Noodles & Company consists of Zoodles tossed in a light scampi sauce with shrimp, roasted zucchini, and Roma tomatoes. The whole thing is then topped with Parmesan cheese, parsley, and a wedge of lemon. For those unfamiliar, Zoodles are pieces of spiralized zucchini that serve as a [low-carb alternative to pasta](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/carb-alternatives). Of course, for those who are not cutting back on carbs, Noodles & Company is also offering a new Penne Rosa with Shrimp dish, which consists of penne noodles in spicy tomato cream sauce.
