These creamy chicken avocado zoodles are one of our ALL TIME favourite healthy dinner recipes. With the combination of chicken, avocado and bacon, you simply can not go wrong!
This recipe is so easy to whip up, it’s only filled with good stuff, it’s packed with veggies PLUS it’s low carb if you’re into that.
Oh wait… the best bit, it tastes bloody good!
If you’re not a fan of bacon, skip it!
If you want to make it vegetarian, swap the chicken to roast pumpkin (OMG drool town).
