This little kitchen helper is AMAZING, if you don't mind me saying. There are a few different kinds. This one was best suited for me. Not cheap as this one with tax was around $100. Some others are more expensive, but I believe it's a great investment & fantastic addition to my kitchen and my families health.
Spiralizers aren't in every house hold but many do know about it, especially our raw foodie friends.
Zucchini, beets, daikon radish &. carrots our amoung the favorites to use with this. These wonderful veggies come out in a pasta like form which makes this great for those cutting down on there carb consumption or just tryng out new ways to eat there veggies or create a new salad recipe. Here's an example using beets as I forgot to take pictures using the ingredients for the recipes I'm about to post.
Most days I wake up early and the first thing I think about is what am I going to make for dinner that night, ok and lunch. I don't have to think about breakfast as it is usually the usual, a shake. So I usually open the frig and look at what I have then remember what's in the freezer, take a peek at the pantry and it just comes together.
Then there are days where I pre-make so many things then realize I did not think about what to make for dinner and come up with some of the best meals from all the pre-made items like dips & spreads, pickled, marinated & roasted items. Love those days.
This is a recipe I came up with to add to my pre-made beet root marinated salmon ( Courtney of Gordon Ramsay )
I posted that on Instagram @enrichinglife. Looks amazing and tasted amazing.

Handful of bean sprouts
1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
1 tbsp sesame oil
1 tbsp ponzu sauce
1 package of wasabi roasted seaweed snack
Salt & pepper to taste
Method:

Slice 4 green onion length wise
Place those three ingredients in a bowl

Crush the while pack of wasabi seaweed snacks with hand and add to bowl

Snap peas, peppers and red onions would also be a great addition to this recipe if you wish. Taking a recipe and making it your own is something I encourage for everyone. After all, a recipe is only an example of the possibilities of what you can create with it. It's a base that can be manipulated.
