Make

Transfer garlic almond meal to a large mixing bowl. Wipe out nonstick pan and return it to the stovetop.
Add second portion of olive oil (for zucchini noodles) and then zucchini. Saute until zucchini is tender, 2 minutes for zucchini noodles or 4 to 5 minutes for cubes. In the last minute of cooking, add anchovies and saute just until heated through.
Transfer zucchini and anchovies to the bowl with almond meal. Wipe out nonstick pan and return it to medium heat.

Season tomato salad with some salt and pepper.
