150 Best Spiralizer Recipes {Book Review}
For anyone who has done a low carb diet, you probably remember how much you missed having pasta. I did! But if you are used to eating straight up “white” pasta, there isn’t much nutritional value in it for you. That’s when I became familiar with my spiralizer tool! And I wish I would have had this book, 150 Best Spiralizer Recipes, to go along with it!
Spiralizers are taking home kitchens by storm. They are a fun way to introduce more vegetables, especially to finicky eaters, and reduce carbohydrates.
One of the simplest options is substituting typical wheat pastas in a dish with zucchini noodles. Quick, healthy and easy to make and so satisfying! 150 Best Spiralizer Recipes has many more delicious and creative dishes to explore, including updated versions of classic favorites.
There are recipes for vegetarians, gluten-free diets and low carbohydrate diets but also a wide variety of dishes for meat, poultry and fish lovers.

16 pages of color photographs feature stunning food photography as well as the many ways you can maximize your spiralizer.
For a new twist on healthy cooking and more tantalizing ways to eat more vegetables and fruits, spiralizing is the answer.

This is just one of the basic, manual power spiralizers. You can get really fancy, you can get attachments for your food processors, etc. Long story short, this neat tool lets you cut fruits and vegetables into a “spiral” shape.
The reason I became familiar with it was using my cutter for squash and zucchini, to make faux pasta noodles. But now, I even use them to get my grandkids to eat their vegetables, or to decorate a plate when I’m feeling fancy!
Several of my friends are having to go to a gluten-free or low-carb diet for health reasons. Wanting to help them in the kitchen, we were looking for recipes that would incorporate their new diet guidelines but keeping it simple at the same time.
