What are zucchini noodles made of?

I've been fascinated by the concept of zucchini noodles lately, but I'm curious: what exactly are they made of? Are they purely zucchini or is there more to the mix? I'd love to unravel the mystery behind these veggie noodles!

Zucchini noodles, often called "zoodles," are primarily made from fresh zucchini. They are created by spiralizing the zucchini, which turns it into long, noodle-like strands. Some recipes might mix in other veggies or ingredients for added flavor and texture, but traditional zoodles are just zucchini. They’re a great low-carb alternative to pasta, and you can enjoy them with various sauces and toppings just like regular noodles!
