Spiralizing is an easy, fun and fast way to make a healthy meal and an excellent substitute to pasta. Cutting all those unhealthy carbs can help you shed pounds, feel more satisfied, add more fiber to your diet and facilitate eating more vegetables all while enjoying your meals. The most popular vegetable to use in spiralizers is zucchini (the infamous “zoodles”), but other vegetables work well too for example:

• Yellow squash
• Beets
• Sweet potatoes
• Butternut squash
• English cucumbers

This spiralizer is easily to use. I love the suction cups on the bottom which keep it from slipping during use. There are 3 blades and they store easily in the unit itself.
