No Noodle “Pasta” Dishes
Pasta, that delicious gluten-filled wonder that everyone craves. But when you are gluten free, or even grain free, finding a “pasta” alternative can be difficult. But when you have a spiralizer, like this one (affiliate link), you can make all sorts of veggie “pasta’s”!
These pasta’s are also great in the summer. No heating up the stove, boiling water, and getting all steamy in the kitchen. All you need is the spiralizer, the select ingredients, and around 10 minutes time.
