Easy Keto Penne Pasta

This easy Keto penne pasta is a fantastic alternative to traditional pasta recipes. Low-carb zucchinis are sliced into penne pasta shapes and then cooked in a wonderful tomato sauce. Feel free to adjust the herbs and spices according to your taste (we suggest using fresh herbs or adding a small amount of red pepper flakes). We also added a small amount of sweetener to the recipe, which is essential to neutralize the bitterness of tomatoes and give you a perfect balance of flavors to enjoy. We served this amazing Keto pasta with shredded mozzarella, but you can also add some freshly grated parmesan and a drizzle of olive oil. Enjoy!
