1. One Pan Skillet Lasagna Zoodles
You can absolutely still enjoy a low-carb lasagna when you use wide spiralized zucchini noodles (aka zoodles) as the base of your recipe. With all the other flavors being so powerful, you won’t even notice the lack of pasta in this dish.

No chopping required when you spiralize your sweet potato for this casserole. Plus, with all a layer of sweet potato that’s thin, it can cook evenly and crisp up. Now to fight for an edge piece…

Butternut squash was my first spiralized veggie to make, ever. This recipe quickly became a norm in our house. It’s so good, it feels bad. You leave satisfied and full, without all the carb bloat. The “bun-noodles” are simply to die for. If you’re new into spiral veggies, this one is probably the best place to start.
4. Balsamic Roasted Spiralized Beets
Talk about color! If you’re not a fan of beets (like me) try them roasted, even better…spiralized & roasted. You’ll get a savory and new take on beets that may even change your mind about them!

A much healthier option that traditional, this crust-less pie is kind of perfect. Easily made in single portions for those late-night snack cravings. I also think I could sell my kids on these little apple noodles, maybe paired with some vanilla ice cream…if they’re good.

Creamy Parmesan pasta does not exist in my house. I simply can’t justify all the bad things in one meal. The creams, the fats, the carbs, the cheese. Yikes. However… loophole recipes that allows you to enjoy all the same elements with a healthy spin? Oh, yes you may!

This salad is technically a potato salad…a sweet potato salad! This one is spiralized for even more enjoyment, and drenched in a sriracha lime peanut sauce. Completely vegan and gluten free, this one is most definitely ending up on my own summer menu!

11. Old Bay Spiral Fries
As a kid I never really was into french fries. However curly fries? Oh… yes…. please. Often very seasoned and flavorful, they were a notch above the average, and I was all about it. Making them at home with a spiralizer and a classic seasoning (typically used in seafood dishes) you can BAKE these babies and get the full flavor punch you’re looking for.

Are you as obsessed with the picturesque (by which I mean, Instagrammable quality) of Buddha Bowls? I mean, look at them. LOOK. That’s majestic foods right there. This bowl is beautifully accented by spiralized butternut squash. Which, is not only pretty but incredibly tasty! Kind of important when you have to actually eat the food after you’re done taking pictures of it…

There are some days that simply require a warm bowl of chicken noodle soup. Except, not all of us can eat the noodles, or want those unnecessary carbs in our feel-good dinner. So, why not swap them out for a spiraled zucchini noodle? Everybody wins!
