A few items to note on this recipe: The coconut flour was a bit of a challenge to find, but I did find it. (through Red Mill) Also, I used a gluten free, low sodium soy sauce, call Little Soya. I had cashews on hand, so instead of unsalted peanuts I used the cashews.
Note: Do not to overcook the Zoodles. If you overcook, this will end up a soupy mess. (still yummy, but soupy)

Instructions
- Scramble the eggs and set aside.
- Place all of the ingredients for the sauce into a bowl, whisk together and set aside.
- Place the peanuts into a food processor and pulse until lightly ground (no big peanuts should remain, but it shouldn't be powdery).
- Set aside.
- Place a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add in oil, garlic and shallots. Cook for about 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, until the shallots begin to soften.
- Add in the sauce and whisk quickly so that the flour dissolves and the sauce thickens.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes or until sauce is reduced and thick.
- Once the sauce is thick, add in the zucchini noodles and cilantro and stir to combine thoroughly.
- Cook for about 2 minutes or until noodles soften and then add in the scrambled eggs and ground peanuts.
- Cook for about 30 seconds, tossing to fully combine.
- Plate onto dishes and garnish with cilantro leaves. Serve with lime wedges.
