Mushroom and Zoodle Spaghetti!
This is a favorite in our house! Even the kids eat it without complaining! Thanks to the Paderno World Cuisine A4982799 Tri-Blade Plastic Spiral Vegetable Slicer
we can have the same texture as noodles without the grain! Before Paleo we were huge pasta eaters… now we don’t miss it at all and my husband actually prefers zoodles over spaghetti noodles!
Ingredients:
Zucchini (Run it through the Paderno World Cuisine A4982799 Tri-Blade Plastic Spiral Vegetable Slicer
or use some mad knife skills)
Mushrooms (Optional. You can use grass fed beef)
Butter (or animal fat or coconut oil)
Simple Marinara (recipe found here)
Instructions:
Bring a pot of water to a boil, boil zucchini noodles until tender. Drain and allow to sit in drain for a while to sweat out the excess liquid.
Saute Mushrooms in a pan. We like to use butter for this, but you can use any type of animal fat or coconut oil!
Combine zoodles and mushroom with Simple Marinara and you have a low calorie, low carb, vegetarian spaghetti!
For my non-vegetarian friends… grass fed ground beef would be great in this!

We seriously use the spiral slicer three to four times a week! I am going to post a recipe a cold cucumber salad using the spiral slicer! It was delicious! The texture is what does it for us!

Does the zoodle machine last and it sturdy? Looks awesome!
<3 Jennifer
The machine is great! Easy to clean, sturdy and I like that the extra blades are built into the side of the machine!

Okay, I added that slicer to my wishlist for when we get back from Cali and start working harder on our diets. What other must haves are there?
<3 Jennifer
The slicer and a food processor are my only two paleo recommendations. I have the ninja blender and get by, but a food processor would make things easier.

I want a food processor SO bad. Why do they have to be so expensive? lol
<3 Jennifer
They are expensive. I have had really good luck with thrift stores this year! Like I said, I don’t HAVE a food processor, but my blender works decently enough. I really only use it for Cauliflower! 🙂 My bullet also works well for lots of smaller items like marinara and bulletproof coffee!

I am in love with zoodles. I prepared them a couple of times, since I bought my spiralizer, but I am sure they’d taste greatly with mushrooms. Thanks for a great post.

We love the spiralizer!! We find that we do not even miss the wheat noodles at all! Thanks for the awesome feedback!
