day 252 : {GIVEAWAY & review} Veggetti Spiralizer

*the folks from veggetti provided me with product, payment & an item to giveaway in exchange for this post. as always, ALL opinions are mine*

happy monday! 

today, i have a fun giveaway, a review AND a recipe from the folks at Veggetti! 

the spiralizer craze seems to be everywhere right now! a spiralizer is a kitchen tool that shreds fruits & veggies into noodles! 

right now, i am five weeks away from my duathlon & have been spending a lot of time outside training! with that, i have been trying to up my water consumption. i have become one of those people who gets *terrible* headaches when i am dehydrated! 

along with more water & more time spent riding & running {and barre & hot yoga}, we are also in the middle of our weekly CSA bounty! each week, we have been receiving cucumbers, zucchini & squash {along with lots of other stuff!} 

i have been trying to eat a whole {or part of} cucumber a day, because of the high water content. {and because i love dipping things in hummus!}

at the beginning of the season, i started this pin board FULL of veggie-friendly recipes! 

so, how do you use a Veggetti? its shaped like an hourglass & has blades on the top & bottom. one side will give you thin noodles, the other, thick.

i used this recipe to create a mid-morning snack ; lemon cucumber noodles with cumin!

the noodles were crunchy & the cumin added a nice kick!

{if you read the amazon reviews, some folks say that clean up in pretty difficult. i use a small wire brush meant to clean my glass straw & it works great!}

want to win a Veggetti for yourself?
