Long "Spaghetti noodles"!



Recommended Posts

Spaghetti squash is great and all, but still nothing you can twirl a fork around, around, and around. I found a tool on Pintrest that I can make a long noodle out of- using zucchini, carrots, or whatever else you want! They really do make long noodles and I sautéed them with a little bit of olive oil and some garlic powder. Added one box of "just sauce" turkey bolognese from Trader Joe's and dinner is done!

Oh hey! My husband was lusting after this one so got it for him (franly yours looks a lot easier to use but he wanted this complicated one). Can't wait until we cn eat veggies properly to make something with it. Your dinner looks yummy!

Yeah, mine does a similar thing, but mine does look easier! It works just like a pencil sharpener, the only thing is the zucchini or whatever you use has to be small enough to fit inside. Seriously long noodles though- 1 1/2 feet! I could slurp my noodles again- a few hit me on the nose as I was eating dinner. It WAS yummy!

could you make a link to where I can order that tool? that is pretty cool. I've heard doing it with zucchini is really good and I'd love to try it.

I saw that too. So glad it's worth the money. I'll have to get one.

You inspired me on the noodles! We had the chicken tikka masala recipe I posted along with zucchini noodles today. Thank you!

It wasn't until I saw it in it's full glory that i realized how much had splatted on to the sides. ugh.

My normally attentive-to-details husband took that pic while I was working but the math homework diversion from the younger one may have played a role!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
