Tips for the marinated zucchini noodles
All you need are spiralized, or at least very thinly sliced zucchini and a marinade that comes together in a cinch! Here are a few tips to make this marinated zucchini noodles recipe even better:
- Spiralize the zucchini by yourself. It is a little more work, but you can control the length of the zucchini noodles. Store-bought zucchini noodles tend to break up very short and are full of short zucchini skins.
- Ensure your mason jar on the container is large enough to hold the zucchini without having the marinade spill everywhere!
How to serve the marinated zucchini noodles
Serve these marinated zucchini noodles as a side with some grilled meat, or as an appetizer, or with a delicious cheese selection.
How and how long to keep the marinated zucchini noodles
Marinated zucchini noodles will keep in an airtight container in a fridge for up to 7 days.If you have the patience to wait even for 3 days, you’ll be amazed by its fantastic flavor! They are delicious even right away!

This turned out so well. It may be my new obsession for the summer. A lot of zucchini growing in the back yard, so I am glad to have found a good (new) recipe to use. Just a tip for any other users, I put my spiralized zucchini in my salad spinner and let drip for a while, and spin. Then a quick blot with a paper towel before adding it to the mason jar. Thanks for posting.
