A friend texted me earlier today asking me what I knew about spiralizers. Quickly, a smile came across my face, and texted her the information that she needed. However, this prompted me to dig through those old kitchen cupboards (you know, the cupboard that hold all the tools that you rarely use) and dust off my spiralizer.
This gadget is a fun little one! It takes no time at all to zip through a half dozen zucchini's to make a wonderful noodle looking dish. It's a great tool if you are a noodle lover - every meal looks like noodle heaven but it surely is not! You can make a full spaghetti meal topped with a pesto or a marinara sauce using only zucchini noodles - a great healthy alternative! Think about how light you would feel after a full plate of zucchini pasta. Amazing!
I bought the Parderno Spiralizer from Amazon, last year. This machine is much more than a kinky zucchini transformer - you can make thick, thin, or curly noodles. You can also make some really creative, beautiful looking fruit art. Apple chips, carrot chips, shredded cabbage, curly potato fries, and so much more. It comes with 3 blades that have different functions for you to explore. And, bonus - it's easy to clean!
What's cooking in your kitchen this week? Any kitchen gadgets that you can't live without? Do you own a spiralizer?
