Since I have a kitchen full of zoodles (the result of making this video!) - I'll be updating a few of the zucchini noodle recipes on my website with new photos. I still can't decide which is my favorite though? ;) Tell me - what's your favorite recipe with zucchini noodles? Are there any recipes you want to see me make? - Lisa xo
I make a garlic sauce with avocado and olive oil, I like thicker sauces with veggie noodles because I find the veggies tend to thin sauce out.
Ooh, that sounds fab! I'm always a fan of garlic. And totally agree that zoodles can get a bit watery, so a thicker sauce is a smart idea.
Where do I buy spy-ro-lizer? Sorry no health food lingo here
Cool cool cool
How much is fiber in rice cakes
She now has zucchini noodles for a week from making this video.
Today, I harvested some zucchini In my backyard. I tried your recipe. I made my zucchini noodles using the Borner julienning mandolin. I worked slowly and carefully. I popped the last little bit of zucchini in my mouth. I had some leftover rice and fresh shiitake mushrooms. I sautéed the sliced mushrooms with minced garlic, added the rice, sesame oil and a bit of soy sauce and heated it through. From here on, I followed your recipe, except I left out the wine since do don't keep any in the house. (As cancer survivors, we don't drink alcohol.) I did have a bit of sweet chili sauce, so I mixed it with the lemon juice. I served the zucchini noodles and shrimp over the rice with mushrooms. It was delicious. Tomorrow, I plan to make your baked zucchini halves stuffed with ground beef Mexican style with all the toppings. And the day after that, I will try making your zucchini lasagna. I am so glad that I came across your recipes, because my zucchini patch is doing extremely well this year.
yes, would appreciate seeing a video (or more) on what other vegetables are good for spiralizing. Thanks for all you offer us!
Fun Fact....Zuchhini is actually a fruit
@@perad1895 they are not watery but juicy. called a courgette in the UK.
Wow. Six years after your video I'm finally looking into how to make zoodles. I'm cutting down on carbs and am looking for something good to go with my bolognese sauce which, surprisingly, is the number one dish served up in Australian households nowadays. It's definitely my easiest go-to meal so it's time to cut down the carbs. I've recently bought an electric peeler and it has a julienne attachment so that will be my first try. I also have a newly acquired food processor but I'm not sure if it will spiralise or just create more julienne style pieces. This was such a good introduction so I've got plenty to experiment with. Thanks for your efforts.
I make pesto without avocado just use olive oil, pine nuts, basil and grated parmesan cheese and garlic, salt, pepper. Nice tips and ordered a spiralizer!
I just posted my basil pesto recipe on my website yesterday as well! Have fun with your spiralizer. :)
plantain herb is good for pesto.
I did get my Sboly 7 blades sterilizer for zucchini and just to is cheaper with Walmart I purchase mines for $17.49 it was on sale. The original price was $ 36 or $37, and shipping free when you spend $35 which I only spent $17.49 because my sister order something from Walmart too so shipping was free for us, and I do appreciate the machine because I enjoy zucchini spaghetti it’s all about the sauce! And it’s a wonderful flavor. It takes on whatever flavor it did you add to the zucchini in this little machine it’s a great delight. Thank you for your video.😍👩🏾🦲🥰
The BEST zuddle tool introduction in RUclips. I bought the Paderno With 6 Different Stainless Steel Blades! Thank you
New to your channel... Not gluten free but trying to eat healthier... I ordered the Paderno spiralizer and just tried zoodles for the 1st time after watching this... I just heated up marinara sauce and put it on them and OMG, I am blown away. I was not expecting them to taste this good. In fact I think I like them better than pasta. I'm going to have to give your other zoodle recipes a try. Thanks for the tutorial. The spiralizer was really easy to use. I was only hesitant because I don't have room for lots of gadgets, but this is worth it. I cleared out some drawer space for it. :)
Wonderful! Happy to hear you grabbed it and love it!
I love the kitchen aid spiraling tool. I made a ton of zucchini noodles yesterday and it was so quick and easy. LOL, you are right, I did have to cut them in half but that's ok.
It's definitely the best option for making tons of zucchini noodles (almost hands-free!). ;) x
True, I walked a way for a moment and it just keeps spinning but doesn't damage anything. lol And the food was so good.
I'm so excited to make zucchini pasta because I just purchased ABS turning spiral slicer dicer for vegetable for fruit zucchini pasta cooking cost over $22 from Walmart online.
Awesome! This zucchini pasta with lemon garlic shrimp is a favorite around here 😉 downshiftology.com/recipes/zucchini-pasta-with-lemon-garlic-shrimp/
Wow! Simply amazing and sounds good alternative to normal noodles. Will try it.
It's a great way of sneaking more veggies into your diet (and they taste great). Definitely give it a try! :)
Great Video! I am just starting on this path of using vegetables in place of pasta. Please keep your recipes and helpful hits coming!
Thanks Wendy! Will do!
KitchenAid hands down. Love making my noodles. All kinds. Beet, butternut squash, sweet potatoes. It's well worth the investment.
Thanks so much for sharing these techniques and equipment options! I am a 2 month old, aspiring RUclipsr and I have enjoyed watching this video. My interest in spiralizing vegetables is new, but I'm excited to begin learning from your channel. Looking forward to viewing the other veg you've spiralized. Subscribing now! Thanks again!
Welcome to the Downshiftology community 😊
I have the Vegetti pro and I have used it for making zoodles. I love them with pasta sauce or as a salad with other veggies and Italian dressing.. My mom has Celiac so I can totally understand your diet restrictions and such..
Wonderful! And yes, zoodles are quite versatile. So much you can do with them. :)
The one by xoxo is a handheld but no pressure it's sharp I love it
Dear Lisa, I love your videos. It has very little that you've found, and I did the meal prep and it worked very well. I'd like that please us mostraras more options. Zucchini noodles today prepared with garlic, and they were very tasty. I send you greetings from Mexico.
Would like a video on the different veg to spiralize for sure!
The kitchen aid ❤ is awesomeness!! I also enjoy the hand peeler, I had the spiraling 🌀 noodle maker didn’t like it…. I tossed it 😂
My supermarket carries pre-spiralized veggies. I was thinking it might be a good idea to try them before investing in a spiralizer, just to see if I like the flavor.
Thank you! I have the last device without realizing I could use it for this!
A lot of thanks from China! Though Chinese food is undeniably delicious, I read an article in Medsci that claims Chinese diets generally have a deleterious effect on health and can cause diabetes, hypertension, obesity, and atherosclerosis. Thus I began to try more Mediterranean diets, and your zucchini noodle recipe is definitely my favorite! ❤
Would love to see another video with other veggies or even fruits to spiralize. :)
Me too
Thank you so much. I have a Kitchen Aid stand mixer and was debating getting the spiral attachment you just confirmed it for me.
It definitely is a game changer when creating new recipes 😊
I love your videos! I have been trying your recipes for months now and they never disappoint. Thank you!
Happy to hear you've been enjoying Downshiftology content!
Thanks..
I'm from India..
And Loved the First spiralizer
So informative! I don't have a spiralizer and thought I couldn't make zucchini noodles but I can!! YAY!
You definitely can! Hope you love them as much as I do! :) x
Would like a video on the different veg to spiralize.
Wonderful - thanks for the feedback! :) x
Well looks like I will have to pull out the spiralizer that I have had forever...a customer brought me 3 big zucchini. Will check out the recipes on your website.
Perfect timing! I just made this zucchini noodle caprese yesterday with all my zoodles: downshiftology.com/recipes/zucchini-noodle-caprese/ but I have several other recipes on there as well. Enjoy!
I just posted that new video with all the other veggies to spiralize. Hope you like it! :)
Going to watch it now!! Thanks.
I so need these in my life right now! Trying to lay low on the pasta right now ....
It's definitely a nice, light, alternative for summer. :)
Loved your favorite way of making of making zucchini noodles. I have several of the tools in my kitchen now I am headed to the store to buy zuchinni.
Yes, I would like to see a video on how to cut other vegetables.
It's wonderful, and simple to make it often.
Thank you for your great ideas.
Thanks! I had a julienne and did that! Made some great noodles. 😀
Love inner core of zucchini. Freeze and add to stews or soups.
K S save it? I put a little salt on it and ate it, right then!🥰
Yes, please do a video on different veggies we can spiraling with pros & cons!
Thank you. This was helpful and enlightening.
Thank you so much I didn’t realize there were so many different methods! Since I already have a KitchenAid mixer, I might just get the attachment. If you get a chance, please let me know if you think the noodles are as thin as the other methods because I feel like it might be better if they are thinner!? Thanks!
Amazing way to use Zucchini thanks dear
Love me some zoodles! I love to take a peeler and peel thin slices then toss that with olive oil, lemon and a little feta cheese!
It's amazing how simple ingredients and flavors can taste like a gourmet dish!
This is a great video showing different options on how to obtain zucchini noodles! I love it!
Thank you so much 🤗
I like the noodle cutter that comes with the sheet vegetable cutter. they don't spiral. nice and flat.
In the UK we say courgette instead of zucchini... and courgetti instead of zoodles
"Zucchini" comes from the Italian word "zucchino", a small squash or undeveloped marrow. "Courgette" is French. "Zucchini" is usually used in countries where American (i.e. USA) English or Australian predominates, "courgette" where French or British English or other English is used, such as the English-speakers in New Zealand and South Africa, and places where French has a history in the language such as Europe where the Romance languages predominate. Wherever you are, though, "courgetti" and "zoodles" are wonderful portmanteaus and great additions to both diet and language.
This was a great video, Lisa! I’m just wondering what the best way to store zucchini noodles (or other veggies) would be, for meal prep and how long it can be stored. Thank you!
Thank you for your great quality video with valuable information!
Glad it was helpful!
Very informative video, thanks. Yes, would love to see other spiralized veggies.
Great - I'll add it to the queue! :)
I just posted that new video with all the other veggies to spiralize. Hope you like it! :)
I'm so glad that found your channel!!! Really enjoyed the video!!! Keep it up! :))))))
Thanks so much! :)
Would love to see what else I can spiralize
I have another video on spiralizing on my RUclips 😊
Thanks for the video. Ordered the handheld device to make those spaghetti. God bless you!
Amazing! Hope you enjoy the spiralizer 😊
would love to see the spiral for other vegetable. I have not try doing zoodle, but I know people who have try. Now I even more inspired.
You should definitely give it a try! And thanks for the feedback - I'll add that other video to my list! :) x
Hi Sharon - I just posted that new video with all the other veggies to spiralize. :)
My daughter is gluten intolerant and her husband is on keto diet. I will let them know about your RUclips channel.
Yes, I would love to see other vegetables you can spiraling. I have the kitchen aide but never used that blade.
Great! Make sure to watch my Spiralizer Beginner's Guide video to see me spiralize lots more veggies. :)
Outstanding
This was great! Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for all your info.
I use the KitchenAid spiralizer. I love it. It is fast, and beautifully done.
You and I both :)
I would like to see the video on other veggies you spiralize! My Celiac diagnosis was 4 years ago. I use spaghetti squash a lot but am happy to have alternatives for when it's not in season.
Perfect - I'll make sure to prioritize that video! I love spaghetti squash as well, but as you mentioned, alternatives are always good. :) x
Great helpful video, I love zucchini noodles! I like eating them with a lemon chicken :)
Thanks Jordan! And lemon chicken zoodles sounds delicious! I may have to add a recipe for that to my website. ;)
Thanks for sharing this info, all I need to know now is how to cook them😄
Kay Marl just Sauté them
I would love to see the video about what other vegetables can be made into noodles. Thank you for this I have the hand held but I didn't really understand how to use it or what the top piece was even used for!
Thanks...very very helpful
Thanks for the video looking forward to seeing some more.
First one is best
Hope you show other veggies that can be used in your cuisine cutter
Hey Lisa
Thanks for the delicious recipe you shared. I will try to cook it this week. But what if there is no white wine available, what can be substituted here?
Looking forward to hearing you soon
Bernadeth
thanks so much, this makes it easy to decide
I love the idea of Zoodle stroganoff with lots of mushroom. Corn starch instead of flour to keep the gluten out. What do you think? Great vid. Thanks for posting
That sounds amazing! You could also use arrowroot powder to thicken the sauce as well (for those who are corn-free). :)
Yes! Please do another video to spiralize!!
Thanks Jeannie! I plan to do it in a couple of weeks - so keep your eyes peeled. :) x
I just posted that new video with all the other veggies to spiralize. :)
Love it!!! I'll get the 1st one! Your channel is bomb
I love your cooking channel 😀💝
Thank you so much 😊
1st is best
Thanks for posting this helpful video! Have you heard of the Veggie Bullet Spiralizer? It is a game changer in the kitchen for sure!!!!
I have heard of it, though haven't personally tried it. My only concern would be the fixed width of the chute. But if you have it and love it, that's awesome!
Would love to see other veggies! Can you freeze zoodles?
Freezing zoodles isn't ideal as it retains a lot of moisture.
Yes. Healthy veggies
Plant based
No animal..
I would like to make zucchini noodles. What size blade makes the best noodles? 2 mm, 3 mm or 5 mm? Thank you 😊
बहुत बढ़िया 💗💗👌👌👌👍😋😋😋
What is the beat way to store the zucchini noodles for lunch without getting soggy?
I want to order the Paderno Spiralizer and was wondering if the one you demonstrated in video was the 3 blade or 6 blade?
hey, i'm thinking about buying the kitchenaid spiralizer. do you think it's possible to spiralize a beetroot with it or is the diameter of the beetroot too big?
It's absolutely possible! Watch me do it on this video: ruclips.net/video/7gorWlpQVks/видео.html You do have to be careful with the KitchenAid spiralizer on diameter, but beetroot works (as it's about the same size as sweet potato). You just wouldn't be able to do cabbage, cantaloup or larger items, like you can with the Paderno Spiralizer.
what I do is I take a little hamburger on my flat grill with some banana peppers and start cooking for a few minutes and I add some zoodle to it and sailtay it with a little garlic salt and when it is about done(less than 5 minutes) I take some of my home canned spaghetti sauce and pour it on. as soon as I don't see any thin runny sauce on the flat grill, it is done .
bon appetit
I just leave in the core, I'm cheap with food
Sounds delicious!
When I want fettuccini pasta.... I use a potato peeler on my zucchini and voila!
Hi, can i just ask, do you shred it with the seeds and all? I found that the seeds tended to clog my peeler
gracias!!
What about the Black and Decker spiralizer? I just got one for a gift and wondered if you have any thoughts and or ideas about it, it’s electric. Thank you!
I've never used that one, so unfortunately can't comment on it.
can you please tell me which model of the Paderno spiralizer you use as I see there are several kinds. Would love to add this to my kitchen. I am gluten sensitive so always looking for new ideas. Thanks!
Hi Erricka - I actually have all the models (I got them all to test out). And they're all great, but the one I tend to use the most (and the one that's used in this video) is the 3-blade model, which is linked in the description box. Hope that helps! :) x
Hi, Lisa!
I love zoodles and I was wondering if it's possible to freeze them. It would make my life extremelly easier.
Hi there! Unfortunately it's not the best idea to freeze zoodles because of how much moisture they retain so when defrosted they will get extremely soggy.
Please make a video on other vegetables that can be spiralized
Here you go :) ruclips.net/video/7gorWlpQVks/видео.html
Can we freeze spiralized zucchini?
What is your post-spiralizer zoodle preparation? Do you salt, boil, roast, eat raw? Thanks!
Hi James - I tend to eat raw most often or just warm them up quickly for a minute in the microwave before adding a sauce. You can find more tips in the blog post linked in the description. :)
Yes please? Spiral other veggies too...
A year ago, I decided to make zoodles with peanut sauce. The zoodles looked perfect and the sauce was delicious. I tossed the 2, set the table and took the bowl over to serve and found a watery mess. The zoodles had oozed out all the moisture. Never made them again. How do I avoid this.
Zucchini will become watery once cooked, which is why I prefer them raw most of the time. Make sure to read the full blog post (linked in the video description) for more tips. :)
Can you do large batches of the Zoodles and freeze them?
It's best not to freeze zucchini noodles as they will get extremely soggy.
@@Downshiftology Thank you
I have been wondering just how hard the Paderno Spiralizer is on the hands and if someone with arthritis would have a hard time with one. I was thinking of one of the electric Spiralizers. Have you tried one of those yet?
I think the Paderno Spiralizer is pretty easy, but that's of course a very individual thing. I have tried the electric spiralizers and I'm usually not a fan given that they're fixed in length (and/or width).
I would love to know how you spiralize sweet potatoes (if you do)... I'm not sure if it's just me, but I find sweet potatoes really difficult to cut and I haven't even bothered with spiralizing because I'm sure I'll cut my hand up! LOL
Yes, I do! I actually think it's easier to spiralize sweet potatoes than cut them (and I use my Paderno Spiralizer). So you should definitely give it a go! :) Here's a recipe I have for curly sweet potato fries as well: downshiftology.com/recipes/curly-sweet-potato-fries/
Hi Lindsay - I just posted that new video with all the other veggies to spiralize, including sweet potatoes. :)
i love your perfect hair ❤️❤️
I love your channel, going to make Ghee tomorrow. :)
Thanks so much! :) I actually need to make a new batch of that as well!
do you first salt to "drain" out the noodles of water before you begin cooking them? I find it too watery the sauces if you don't
I don't. But I also don't really cook my noodles - most of the time I eat them raw or simply warm them. Make sure to read my blog post (linked in the video description) for my tips. :)
Thanks you much
Which is the easiest to clean???
the only thing missing was zucchini noodle recipes!
I have several on my website. ;)
