How to make "noodles" out of Zucchini and Cucumber



Recommended Posts

So my husband created a video showing how this can be done. Have a look and it's our first video so if you want to leave us feedback on youtube, that will really help. :)

I actually have quite a few recipes on my blog that are all sleeve-friendly. www.sleevers.wordpress.com

I first learned about zuchinni noodles from The World According to Eggface blog, I bought an OXO julienne tool with extra tiny holes and it makes perfect spaghetti noodles :) which I blanche just enough to make them limp.

Awesome! How do you cook them? I assume they wouldn't need to fully boil like regular Pasta noodles do. Do you saute them instead? Do they taste good with spaghetti sauce or even just with some garlic salt and olive oil? I love spaghetti squash so I am sure I will like noodles made out of zucchini!

The cucumber ones do not need to be cooked at all. Fresh and crunchy! The zucchini ones, you can sauté in a little oil until they are it soggy and get a bit crisp and crunchy. I love spaghetti squash myself but I love these more. They don't have much of a taste and so you can actually taste the sauce made. Spaghetti sauce would work well.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
