Spiralizers

Does anyone use this? I have been looking at these awhile but I don't want gadgets around I am not going to use. I avoid pasta, bread and other carbs as much much as possible, so, spaghetti for me is sometimes just the sauce and a meatball or two! I make spaghetti pie with spaghetti squash sometimes - in fact I bake a spaghetti squash pretty often (in rings). But I have been wanting some variety in my veggies recipes. So yesterday at the produce department of the health food store I saw this:



This was pricey, but better to buy this than a spiralizer and only use it once. So I tried it last night for our dinner. I loved it! The zucchini does not have the squash taste, which is mild with spaghetti squash, but, its still there, and its distinctive, so I don't want it to be my only pasta substitution. I did a quick hot stir fry of garlic and onions in olive oil and then the zucchini for 3-4 minutes. I tossed that right into in a bit of ricotta and parmesan before topping it with sauce and meatballs. Great meal! And guilt free.

Now I want a spiralizer. I would use it several times a month for sure. Cooks Illustrated says use this one: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2015/0...n_7087924.html and these other reviewers say this OXO one is their best pick (easier to clean) http://thesweethome.com/reviews/best-spiralizer/. I'm going to order one. Probably the OXO.
