redlove1446 42 Posted May 5, 2014 hey guys! I saw this made for tv commercial about a tool that slices zucchini, etc do that the veggies look like noodles. For the life of me, I can not remember the name. Does anyone know the name of this product or know of a similar type of product? It produced curly "noodles" out of the veggies. 2 StayingStrong and Mikee57 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BigGirlPanties 957 Posted May 5, 2014 You can also just buy spaghetti squash...once cooked, you remove the seeds and shred it with a fork...it absorbs the sauce and takes on that flavor...the texture is very similiar too... 7 redlove1446, Mississippi Girl, enjoythetime and 4 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SusinMichigan 76 Posted May 5, 2014 We eat a lot of spaghetti squash in our house (still pre-op). Make a light Tomato sauce with turkey meatballs and put it over the spaghetti squash ... awesome! It looks just like spaghetti! 4 redlove1446, enjoythetime, RNBSN786 and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
redlove1446 42 Posted May 5, 2014 Thanks guys! I have seen the spaghetti squash and aim to try that, as well. I really liked the idea of the curly Zoodles, too! Or, maybe I just think it's cute... Lol Trading a food addiction for a healthy cooking appliances addiction maybe? 5 BlessedBeyondMeasure2012, Mikee57, StayingStrong and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
redlove1446 42 Posted May 5, 2014 Cover my eyes and ears.......That is just sacrilege to Pasta. I agree but, when I tried a bite of mashed potato the other day and it expanded in my tummy, I figured maybe I need to check out other options. My love of pasta is great but my new tummy thinks I should wait a long while to try it. 5 Mississippi Girl, BigGirlPanties, RNBSN786 and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigGirlPanties 957 Posted May 5, 2014 Have you tried smashed cauliflower instead of mashed potatoes? I also made a pizza with a cauliflower crust...it's amazing what you can do 6 piercedqt78, RNBSN786, Mikee57 and 3 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AlwaysLorri 31 Posted May 5, 2014 I was thinking of how to make things a little more dazzling and remembered Gefu Spirelli Spiral Slicer that was on the Dr. Oz show so I ordered it. Can't wait for it to arrive. I'll let you know how it goes. hey guys!I saw this made for tv commercial about a tool that slices zucchini, etc do that the veggies look like noodles.

JanetPRN 496 Posted May 5, 2014 It's called a Veggitti. I am intrigued also. Be careful though, the Veggitti plus the *free* mincer came to $32 with shipping and handling, that's crazy for a tool listed as costing $14.99! I also found it on Amazon with free shipping for $14.92. Big difference . Has anyone used this thingy? 4 BlessedBeyondMeasure2012, enjoythetime, redlove1446 and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
piercedqt78 658 Posted May 5, 2014 I would check walgreens and bed bath and beyond, so if it sucks you can return it without having to pay shipping to you and back. 4 BigGirlPanties, redlove1446, RNBSN786 and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

StayingStrong 78 Posted May 5, 2014 The link above (I think its the first comment after your post) is the one I have. I love it!! Haven't used it post sleeve but used it before as I was trying to stop eating wheat. My house is always filled with teens and they all LOVED it!! I sprayed very lightly with olive oil and salt and roasted it before I tossed with sauce. Zucchini reduces down alot which is no big deal for sleevers but if you're making for family make lots!! YUM YUM. PS today is my first bite of food in 3 weeks!! I had really watered down re-fried Beans and some 0 fat greek yogurt. YUM YUM!!! 1 Mikee57 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
