Default Vegetable Spiralizer

This is sort of a spin-off of Heddy's post about Skinnytaste. I didn't want to bog her post down with outside recipes, so I thought I'd ask here.

Has anyone used a veggie spiralizer? I got one for Christmas (by request), and I LOVE IT! I have found several recipes that I want to try on this site, but I made this one last week:



It was absolutely AMAZING. We devoured it. No leftovers. Even Chloe loved eating the "green noodles."

I can't wait to go through and try some more.

So, if you use a spiralizer, what are your favorite recipes?

I have been trying to find one of those but can't seem to get one in Canada. It looks like such a great idea!

Jeff got me this one. It's nice but feels a little cheap. Just not super sturdy. It does the job though.

On that site, the gal recommends this one.

We don't have a spiralizer because it seemed to large to store in the limited space we have right now. But the julienne peeler from this set works great for zoodles too: http://www.oxo.com/p-1142-3-piece-peeler-set.aspx

I've seen a smaller version of the vegetable spiralizer. Is yours easy to clean, Libby?

I have two small spiralizers. I haven't tried either of them yet. They are actually in my gift closet. I paid $1 each for them through special Amazon deals (and with the $1 music credit for choosing no rush shipping they may as well have been free). I keep meaning to pull one out and try them. They've been here since early November.

I have this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

and this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Yep, super easy! It comes apart easily and goes in the dishwasher!

I bought a Paderno last Spring. I was nervous about it because I have a tiny kitchen so I hate adding things that don't get used. We love it though and use it regularly.

I really wanted the Paderno, but Jeff thought the one he got was better for some reason. LOL I figure I'll use it til it falls apart then I'll replace it with the Paderno. I can already see that we'll use it lots!

I've seen several people talking about this one on the Weight Watchers forums. I need to buy one.

I got one (Paderno) for my MIL last year. She eats gluten free and I thought this would provide her another alternative to pasta! I want to try one to see if we would like it. Which recipes have you all liked?

In our household, Sean does all of the research and purchasing of kitchen items like this. I have horrible luck when buying the brands I pick out. I gave up and just let him pick it. Maybe Jeff should do the same. LOL

I really want to get one but i'm not a big fan of zucchini. I don't like the texture but who knows its much more tastier in the from of noodles.

I've been looking for a julienne peeler for ever, but can't seem to find one that isn't online with crazy shipping cost. I love zuccini noodles!
