Over the holidays, we purchased a Hamilton Beach 3-in-1 Spiralizer, I have had fun putting it to good use!  This is an electric one and simple to use.  It comes with three blades – the spiral cutter, the ribbon cutter, and the grater.  So far I have only used the spiral cutter.

I decided to make shrimp scampi – a dish my family adores – but instead of using pasta, I substituted it for spiralized zucchini.  The results? The Hubby was pleasantly surprised, my little one gobbled it up, and my older one was skeptical and asked if we could eat it with pasta next time.  You can’t win them all.  But two out of three isn’t bad!
