Do you have a spiralizer?

You know those kitchen gadgets that slices vegetables into noodles?

Well, I have had one for awhile and I highly recommend getting one.

Why?

There is something about eating vegetables as a noodle shape changes the taste of them-seriously.

I was never a big raw zucchini fan but spiralizing into a noodle shape I can eat gobs in my salads or at supper with my homemade meat sauce.

It is a really easy way to get your kids to eat more vegetables too. Nothing like thinly cut ribbons of cucumber or sweet and crunchy jicama to get a kid to eat them.

Instead of just lettuce and cut up cukes in my salads I now add carrot and zucchini zoodles which adds even more fiber to my salads.

So I am sharing a new slaw recipe with you all today but not just an ordinary slaw. One that has jicama, carrot, pear and zucchini zoodles in it plus matchstick pieces of those same ingredients.

I like plating the slaw on a large plate or platter with individual mounds of the various ingredients. It makes for a fun and interesting serving experience.

Two dressings are included in this recipe. One is a lime chive vinaigrette that you can pour half over your slaw ingredients and serve the other half on the side, plus I have a a spicy peanut dressing that I love love!

Add a couple bbq chicken breasts or pork tenderloin to this and you have a low carb healthy meal.
