Garlic Shrimp Zoodles

Kids love to spiralize things, and this is a fun way to get them involved in cooking.  At the dinner table you can even have a contest to see who can find the longest zoodle.  It also comes together in a short time for a quick meal. You can switch out  the shrimp for chicken or even edamame for a plant-based version.
