Gluten free noodles off the shelf can be decent tasting, but also can lack in nutrition. With a spiralizer, you can have noodles made completely out of vegetables! Talk about healthy. Try out this raw zucchini BLT salad we made with the OXO spiralizer, no cooking required. Spiralizers are great for making gluten-free pasta dishes, just blanch the spiralized noodles for a couple of minutes and toss with your favorite sauce.
