I use them all the time! I saute them with cauliflower rice in a little bit of oil, and then add sesame ginger marinade...and some chicken...dinner!

I like them just plain sauteed with a little butter/olive oil. I also eat them in place of spaghetti with sauce, or sometimes mixed with a small portion of pasta to bulk it up and then add sauce.

I use them like spaghetti - dry fry them for a couple of minutes to soften them up a bit, then smother them in your favourite spaghetti sauce - yum!

I tried them for the first time last week. I had them sauteed with some sundried tomato basil pesto, and a little olive oil. It was delicious.

I had them for the first time last week, I found a recipe on pinterest for a kale, avocado and basil pesto with cherry tomatoes and zucchini noodles, it was amazing!

Dont cook them. They will turn to mush. I nuke them for about 30 sec just to take the chill off, so they don't cool down my spaghetti sauce so much. Some people suggest squeezing the water out of them so they don't add water to your dish.

I like to saute with garlic, White beans, carrot sheds, bell peppers and a little cumin and tumeric or Italian seasoning

The best website for spiralized veggie recipes is www.inspiralized.com

I personally like to saute mine with some minced garlic, 1 tablespoon of olive oil and some Italian seasonings to your own taste. Don't cook them too long (3-4 min), they cook very quickly and like others said will basically be mushy if you over cook them. Drain the pan, place them on some paper towels to soak up some of the moisture after cooking. Then you basically have noodles you can do anything you want with. I pair them with healthy versions of chicken parm, meat balls or other Italian dishes I enjoy but want to cut carbs from. Usually lightly sauce whatever the dish is with a marinera or tomato sauce of your preference. Just don't drown it in sauce because you'll quickly rack up the calories/carbs lol.

Thank you guys for all your feedback! I appreciate it! And atjays I did something pretty similar thank you!!! It was good though regardless!!!

Like others have posted, dry fry them because they can really add a lot of water to a dish and ruin a good sauce. That said, I use the thinner side of my spiralizer and make a low calorie pad thai- it's one of my favorite ways to use them.

I use them in place of lettuce in a lot of salads.

My favorite is to make the turkey meatballs from Skinny Taste's website and serve on top of zoodles instead of pasta to add some texture. I just nuke them for a minute before adding balls and sauce.
