Spiralize It!: Creative Spiralizer Recipes for Every Type of Eater

EXTREMELY HELPFUL COOK BOOK! Spiralize It! is a book that is really needed!Like a lot of people who love kitchen gadgets, I purchased the spiralizer! In fact I purchased two different models; I have the crank spiralizer and the hour glass spiralizer. The problem is after the novelty of putting a few things in it to make veggie spaghetti and garnishes, the novelty wore off and it was placed on the shelf of things I impulsively bought!This book took my spiralizer gadgets off the 'impulsively bought' shelf to the 'useful kitchen gadget' shelf! Spiralize It! by Kenzie Swanhart taught me how to take my spiralizer from being a garnish maker to being a FULL nutritional meal maker! This book offers Creative Recipes that are simple to make. It starts with showing you the different types of spiralizers and offering the pros and cons of each type. It continues on to Classic Cravings which speaks about the more common dishes most people like. It then continues as a normal cookbook offering sections on Breakfast, Snacks and Sides, Salads, Vegetarian and Vegan, Raw, Fish and Seafood, Meat and Poultry, and Sweets! In each of these sections you will find recipes for many dietary needs. To name a few, there are the Paleo, Dairy Free, Gluten Free, Vegetarian and Vegan Diets as well as the Picky Kids diet!This book will also help you learn to swap out carbs for veggies and will help you tailor your recipes to suit your spiralizer. The also features a list of dressings, marinades and sauces to use on your spiralized veggies as well as a list of the produce with the least and greatest amount of pesticides. It closes with a Measurement conversion chart.I found most helpful the BEAUTIFUL pictures. I am a visual person and being able to see what a food item will look like after it is spiralized was a HUGE benefit for me! Just knowing what the end product would be built my confidence to experment and be more creative myself!I especially liked the Chicken Pad Thai, it was savory and rich! The raw rainbow noodle salad was a hit with my family! My kids just ADORED the sweet potato waffles! I am enjoying this book and I am enjoying the wonderful recipes! I am also having fun with creating some of my own recipes. This book is not only a great manual for the spiralizer, it is also a great motivator! I highly recommend this book to EVERYONE who owns a spiralizer or is thinking about getting one! I guarantee that you will be as PLEASED as I am to own it!Disclaimer - I received this item for my honest and unbiased review. All opinions are my own based on personal experience.

I love veggies and bought a Spiralizer when I accidentally came across one on Amazon. I had never heard of one before and it was inexpensive enough that I thought I would give it a try. I bought this book at the same time to give me a number of ideas of different things to do with it. Though it has slightly less than 200 pages, the book contains quite a bit of information, including hints for newbies like me, how to choose the veggies you use, and a lot of other stuff. I was surprised at how wide a variety of recipes were in the book, from pizza and waffles to various meat dishes, ranging from simple to elaborate, and from common fare to fancy. One of my favorite ideas was using zucchini or butternut squash to make noodles for spaghetti or linguini instead of using regular pasta. It TASTES GREAT!!! Another great idea was to us the stalk of Broccoli in the spiralizer, an item I paid for by weight but always threw away before and just used the florets.You don't have to cook your vegetables the same old boring way every day. You can add interest in the way you prepare and use them. Even kids may be willing to give the attractive spiral ribbons a try, or maybe not even realize that the noodles they are eating are not "normal" pasta. The recipes also may tempt you you try a vegetable you never had before. I know I am going to try parsnips and turnips - I never had then before because they sound "yukky."The book includes a list of 27 different veggies and fruits you can use, and tells you how to prepare them. Included near the end of the book is a small section of different sauces or salsas you can make to spice up your creations. My favorite recipes include Chicken Pad Thai, Chicken and Broccoli Fettuccini Alfredo, sweet potato waffles, chopped Asian salad, vegan ramen bowl, Asian broccoli slaw, and numerous others. Each recipe also includes a list of substitutions, so if you don't have or like a certain vegetable, you can just just use a different one.

The is a good size book, not too thin, but not too thick either. The beginning discusses the different types of spiralizers available, and also list a few of the popular brands. Spiralizers are fun to use and it's a great way to get your picky kids to eat, for instance the chicken and broccoli fettuccine alfredo recipe calls for one butternut squash to be spiralized into fettuccine noodles! For dessert you can make them the chocolate-zucchini muffins which calls for the zucchini to be spiralized into spaghetti noodles for the recipe. Now the kids probably won't even know there is zucchini in their chocolate muffin. This is what is great about most of the recipes in this book. There are ninety-six creative recipes included in this book to go with your spiralizer. I like that the recipes are geared at creating healthy dishes, and you can sneak in different foods that you may not have otherwise thought of to use. I will admit some of these are unique recipes like, butternut squash enchiladas, coconut curry noodles, sweet potato bacon and spinach breakfast skillet, get my drift? Not saying they wouldn't taste good they just sound new and different! Some of the others sound really good like pear and almond tart, spring rolls, crunchy summer vegetable salad. That was just a few of the yummy sounding ones! This recipe book is even great to find some good healthier dishes. The book also has produce prep guide. Towards the end of the book it contains several sauce, salsa, and dressing recipes. I like that this spiralizer book contains a variety of recipes, so yes there are several I like. This book also contains a couple of pictures. Almost every page contains a recipe on it except for a small section in the beginning and of course the pictures. Overall it contains interesting and creative recipes that you may like.I did receive this book free in exchange for my honest review. This review is based on my own thoughts and opinon(s) on this book.
