Zoodle Pad Thai
(gluten-free, grain-free, dairy-free, corn-free, soy-free, vegan... and yet amazingly delicious!)
Get your Zoodle on!
Yeah, that is right. This Zoodle Pad Thai recipe is the bomb.com. You can make a large batch and eat it for dinner and several lunches. Or bring it to a fiesta and share it with others. This is a refreshing Summer salad, however, it can be eaten year-round. You can mix and match ingredients depending on your taste. As a Nutritionist, my viewpoint is the more veggies and the bigger burst of colors on your plate the more nutrients you will receive. Often times I discuss the importance of antioxidants to our health.

You will need a spiralizer to prepare this dish. If you have not used a spiralizer I highly encourage you to try one out. At the bottom of the post are my favorite recommendations.
Spiralizing 101
If you are new to spiralizing veggies then you can start with the Veggeti, which you can see in my picks below. It is inexpensive compared to the other ones, easy to clean, and conveniently small so it is easy to store. If you are ready to step it up a notch then I recommend the Ninja Precision Processor. It is an all-in-one appliance that spiralizes, chops, mixes, and purées. So why not step it up a notch and get on board with the spiralizing party?!
