Spiralizer is a game changer.

When Doug was doing Whole30, I cooked a lot of zucchini noodles in place of pasta. His favorite dinner from that entire experience was Turkey Meatballs in homemade Tomato Sauce over Zucchini Noodles. While zucchini noodles look impressive, they are actually incredibly easy to make at home.

My local markets sell zucchini noodles in the produce section but they are almost always sold out, thicker than I like, and the zucchini is never organic. I like making “zoodles” at home for a few reasons. I like to control the thickness of the “zoodle”, I want to use beautiful organic zucchini, and I don’t want to rely on the store if they are often out of stock.

With seasonal summer produce making it’s way into the markets and gardens getting ready to deliver boatloads of zucchini, I thought I would share this wonder of a machine. It’s wonderful for other produce like potatoes, carrots, and onion. On my “to make” list is spicy curly fries and with the Spiralizer, it will be a snap.

Enjoy!

I’m not going to let the back-to-school vibe in my house get in the way of my seasonal cooking. It may be all about the make-ahead breakfasts, packed lunches, and quick weeknight dinners, but fall cooking can wait. There is so much left of summer to taste!

Fish with Summer Vegetables is pretty much summer on a plate. Fresh zucchini, ripe tomatoes, and corn are the standout stars of this addictive but simple sauce. This colorful dish is totally delicious, healthy, and full of seasonal flavor. This dinner is on repeat around here all summer long.

I serve this with orzo or rice.

Enjoy!
