Zoodles

It's that time of year again. 

My garden might be slow going, but we do have zucchini! G told me the other day that he doesn't love zucchini. He likes it, but doesn't love it. I.e. we don't need to plant as many next year. Well, I do love it, so I've been putting it to good use: soup, stir fry, and muffins to start. 

A friend suggested shredding and dehydrating it to throw in pretty much everything all winter. It really shrinks down to nothing! 

I found my KitchenAid veggie spiralizer attachment and made zoodles. 

Beautiful curls! But it leaves a lot of pieces behind. I shredded those for dehydrating. 

The first round of zoodles went in the freeze dryer. They came out similar in consistency to veggie straws. Jaron loved them. I bagged them up for later rehydration, probably this winter when we're longing for green...
