    i bought my spiralizer off ebay for around £5, looks like a large pencil sharpener. no brand name sorry

    i make noodles from courgette, mooli, butternut squash and the large left over stalk from broccoli/cauli etc not tried it with a carrot so dont know if would handle it or not

    i do like oopsies but u can also make a bread sub from almond flour/flaxmeal which i find more substantial. have a few of these recipes so shout if u want them

    I've been thinking about getting one too!

    I purchased a julienne peeler from ebay...silly mistake.

    After reporting to the seller it didnt work, they replied 'What it not peeling'.

    I correct them saying it did peel, but didnt Julienne..the reply...'What julienne'.

    rather humorous to me, but annoying..am still in need of a julienne peeler.

    I bought this spiraliser as it doesn't leave chunks of waste veg like some if the others. Works extremely well on all the veg I've tried so far...

    I bought a gefu spiralizer at the weekend and have used it sometimes twice a day! It is a bit big, so not easy to store and ordinarily I would wait to find one at a car boot sale, but I had a pain to get one!

    There are plenty of recipes for grain free low carb eating on Pinterest . Black bean brownies are a fav of mine.
