So we recently got this nifty contraption called a "Spiralizer" which basically does exactly the thing that it sounds like it would do - cuts things into spiral-shaped noodles. Who would have thought, right?
If you don't own one at the moment, I highly recommend checking one out online and making the purchase. Especially if you're into healthy eating.
They come in all shapes and sizes but my girlfriend settled on this one and she loves it. (I haven't used it, yet...) I know it wasn't crazy expensive because she's a penny-pincher so I know this thing didn't break the bank haha! I believe she ordered it off of Amazon if I remember correctly... $20 or $30 bucks maybe...
But anyway... Viola, now we have an endless supply of zucchini noodles coming out of our ears, and I'm sure there's other things we can use it with too!
But anyway, it works like a charm. Just stick your little vegetable of choice on the end there, (zucchini being one of the best working probably) and push it into the blades while you spin it around like a tiny little rotisserie chicken, and out comes a slew of never-ending, fresh zucchini noodles. (they're all literally never-ending and just one long noodle lol, so you have to go back and cut them. No biggie to us though.)
In my opinion, variety is key when trying to maintain sanity while sticking to a highly-regimented eating plan. And the ability to crank out fresh, never-ending zucchini-noodles is definitely on the list when it comes to adding a bit of spice to your healthy recipes instead of beating your head against a wall trying to eat plain chicken and broccoli every day!
"Plain chicken and broccoli is my favorite meal." -Said No One, Ever.
And now we have a new awesome dish we can make in no time! Not to mention I'm sure we'll find quite a few other things we can do with this little sucker!
In any case, didn't mean to make it sound like a commercial for a spiralizer, haha!
So, on with the real meat and potatoes so to speak-
Here's one of our new favorites to make on the easy-paleo home-front here... Hot Italian Sausage With Fresh Zucchini Noodles.
Just fry up some ground hot Italian sausage, put it in your spagetti sauce of choice (my girlfriend made ours from scratch and I didn't happen to catch the recipe, but next time I'll post it for sure!) and get out your little spiralizer and go to town on your noodles.
Then top it off with some parmesan, romano, etc... I think we have a 3 cheese italian blend there.
Sprinkle a bit of parsley to boot... and
BAM! (Sorry Emeril)
For you today, judges, I have prepared a wonderfully healthy, paleo, low-carb, heart-healthy, fat-burning dinner. (Can you tell we like food network? Chopped, anyone?!) :D
Yay!
Let me know if you get or already have a spiralizer and what you can come up with!
Cheers to healthy living!
