We bought one for our KitchenAid mixer, used it a few times and quit.  So I wondered how many of you still spiralize and do you have a favorite recipe?  

 

OR, is it garage sale time next spring?  LOL!!!

I still spiralize but I have the Veggie Bullet and only use it for squash and zucchini. I don't have any favorite recipes and just saute grill, or steam the squash and zucchini with a little butter (Paula Dean portion size) and seasoning!

I still use mine for zucchini noodles.  I'm doing more of a ketogenic/low carb diet these days, so it is so important when I want a pasta to sub there.  I saute them in a bit of butter and/or bacon/pancetta fat.  Then I top.  I make different size noodles with yellow summer squash too.

Yes, I love that thing.  Here's one of my favorite recipes:  https://www.savorylotus.com/thai-red-curry-sweet-potato-noodles/

@Sooner Not so much these days. I bought a plastic spiralizer at a discount store for $10. For the most part I made zoodles for chicken zoodle soup. That works well. However, after seeing @Glittergal recipe for the Thai soup, I'm going to bring it out again this weekend. Thanks!

Never bought a spiralizer because I bought several different veggies spiralized by the supermarket and I found them tasteless.  Not sure why that would be, but it made me decide to use the knives I already own!

I love spiralized veggies but haven’t found a good tool for it.

I don't have a KA spiralizer, but my niece does.  She uses it a lot.  She brings something at every family function made on this machine....everything from apple pie that looks like rose pie to zuchinni lasagne.

I don't have one so can't vote - - but to me It 'appears' to produce food with more eye appeal than flavor.  If you squeeze all juices out - what's left?

I use my KA spiralizer attachment at least once a week to make zoodles.  For stir fry,  chow mein, chow fun, ramen zoodle soup.   Zoodles are  a  heathy alternative  to  flour based pastas like spaghetti and lasagna noodles.   Also I use it for making fruit jerky.  And a lot of other things.  

You can send me yours if you no  longer find a reason use it. Smiley Wink
