Here you go.

Zucchini Spaghetti Salad (Joy of Kosher)
� 2 medium zucchini (1 1/4 lbs. total)
� 2 Tbsp olive oil, divided
� 2-3 mini onions, sliced into thin rings
� 1 small garlic clove, very thinly sliced
� 1 cup grape tomatoes (5 oz.), halved
� 2 cups mushrooms (5 oz.), thinly sliced
� kosher salt and coarse black pepper, to taste

Peel the zucchini and trim the ends. Using a good quality julienne peeler (OXO far surpasses the others), cut the zucchini into long strands of spaghetti. Keep peeling into julienne strips until you have just 1/2" inch of zucchini remaining in the center. Discard.
Lay out the zucchini spaghetti in one even layer over doubled up paper towels. Allow the zucchini to sit and dry out for 4 hours.
In a large non-stick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Saut� the zucchini strands until just heated through and coated with oil, about 2 minutes, in batches as necessary. Set aside.
In the same pan, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and saut� the onion and garlic until translucent, about 2 minutes. Add the mushrooms and saut� another 3 minutes. Then add the grape tomatoes for 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Season the zucchini with kosher salt, add the rest of the vegetables and toss lightly with tongs.
Serve at room temperature.
