My daughter loves pasta and so do I. While occasionally I prepare the traditional flour based pasta. Most times the ‘pasta’ I use is actually vegetables noodles. It’s a healthier option for those who are looking for candida free food, eliminating gluten, reducing carbs, etc.,
I’ve had my spiral vegetable slicer for over eight years. It’s made of sturdy plastic and easily turns vegetables into long spaghetti like strands.
There are three different dies to change the thickness of the pasta. I much prefer the thicker noodles, but it’s really a personal preference.
Since my daughter has been carving pasta ,earlier today I made zucchini pasta with garlic roasted tomato sauce. As you can see, she loves a lot of sauce and she liberally sprinkled her pasta with raw sunflower seeds and raisins. Simple, delicious and nutritious.
I see MANY Zuchini’s Pasta’s in my future! NOW is the time for the wonderous Zuke’s in our area! I’ll be doing several different sauces, too! This looks and sounds great! YUM! I want some now!

@Jennifer, We’ve been blessed with a overabundance of produce this year. I know that’s partly due to our honeybees. The past years have been bountiful. We always have plenty for ourselves and more than enough to give away. This year the amount has increased significantly.

@Opal,
That’s WONDERFUL! If my neighbor’s were more approachable I would ask if I could purchase some of their left overs. They have turned their back yard lot into a garden AND forest! lol 🙂 They aren’t the friendliest people, tho…bummer!
