There's no actual pasta in this recipe, but spiralized vegetables do a fabulous job of mimicking the real deal. This is the best time to invest in a spiralizer if you don't have one, as it's one of our favorite ways to prep veggies. The squash, carrots, and shallots are first sautéed in chicken broth, then flavored with goat cheese, lemon zest, and lemon juice for a punch of citrusy brightness. Stir in the chives, season with salt and pepper, top with more cheese, and your delicious pasta substitute is ready to go. You'll love how supremely satisfying this recipe is without all the extra calories and carbs.
