]]> I’ve been using a vegetable spiralizer for awhile now to make vegetable noodles.  When I switched over to a no grain diet I needed something to put my pesto and home made meat sauce on!  I started by using zucchini only as it is the easiest one to use (leave the skin on for the healthy green part, but you can peel to make it look more like real noodles!) I have now branched out into carrots, sweet potato and daikon radish.  I have yet to try parsnips, turnips, cucumber, broccoli stems, apples and squash!  One of my favorite recipes using daikon radish is pad thai.  A great cookbook which I got recently is here and I can’t wait to try out some new recipes!

Some other great ideas:

  • cold noodle salad made with carrot noodles
  • broccoli slaw
  • sweet potato curly fries!
  • apple dessert made with apple spirals
  • pretty spiralized beets on top of a salad or roasted (wash spiralizer right away or will stain)

There are a few different kinds out there but this is the one that I love and use regularly.  It is inexpensive, comes with three blades and washes very easily!

Thai food, Chinese food, Japanese food can you say yum?  Soy sauce, MSG, wheat…can you say belly ache? at least for me!  I love finding unusual recipes that fit all my dietary needs!  The newest and latest gadget that I have discovered is called “the spiralizer” you can find it on Amazon here.  It takes vegetables and spirals them into thick or thin noodles or ribbons that you can use in place of regular noodles.  Plus it is really fun!  I normally use zucchini or carrots but I ran across a new cookbook called “Inspiralized” found on Amazon here, she also has a great blog where I was inspired by the pad thai recipe using daikon radish, this is my version….

(Oh please I heard you say ewwww but you are going to be shocked if you try it!)IMG_3630

Grain-Free Pad Thai
Unusual Pad Thai recipe using Daikon Radish as the "noodles"
Servings2-3 people
Prep Time15 minute
Cook Time10 minutes
Ingredients
Instructions
  1. Use your spiralizer to spiral the radishes, I used the thin noodle setting. (You could use zucchini or rice noodles)
  2. Blend the sauce ingredients in a bowl and set aside
  3. Scramble the eggs in 1/2 the sesame oil, set aside
  4. Add the rest of the oil and start cooking the radish, add the sauce and stir until the "noodles" are to your liking. They will get softer the longer you cook. I like them slightly crisp.
  5. Add back in the eggs and toss
  6. Plate and add the cashews and cilantro
  7. Enjoy!
