It surprised me how well they blended with pasta, acquiring the same taste with sauce. Zucchini and crookneck squash are probably my two favorites so far to fix with the spiral slicer. This worked easily on squash, carrots, even a russet potato! I LOVE it! A snap to clean too, with no disassembly needed. This is my favorite new gadget! It is so much fun! So easy to use to make long, long spirals just like spaghetti. It’s so much fun, easy to use, and makes for much healthier pasta dinners! I wonder how it would taste with sweet potatoes? Maybe that will be next!Ĭheck out the GEFU Spiral slicer here. And of course, you can add any vegetable you like.

I love spinach fettuccine, but I bet it would be just as good with gluten free or whole wheat pasta. Just as you would toss pasta in olive oil and garlic, add in zucchini spaghetti to stretch the servings, increase your vegetable servings, and have a healthier pasta dish. It’s also very tasty with an oil based sauce if you prefer that to red sauce. I loved the fact that it seemed like I was eating a big dish of spaghetti and fettuccine noodles, but half of it was squash! The zucchini/squash ‘noodles’ even tasted like pasta, especially when mixed with some pasta. Next time I’ll add onions slices and some mushrooms too. Use your favorite meat sauce too, if you aren’t a vegetarian.

It’s very low in calories for a very big serving. The serving pictured about used only two ounces of the pasta (that’s just 210 calories) and one cup of the squash spirals. I used a marinara sauce, and was delighted with the finished dish.

Then simply serve with your favorite pasta sauce. First I combined them with spinach fettuccine, adding them to the pot for the last couple of minute of cooking time. The spirals came out looking like spaghetti. This is about the recipe.īasically, I spiral-sliced one zucchini and one yellow crookneck squash.

The new toy is the GEFU Spiral slicer, but more about that below. It is so much fun to use that I’m already checking the fridge for something else to try it on. This low calorie, easy, vegetarian recipe just came together because of a new gadget I found.
