I love mine Jan...I use it for sweet potatoes, zucchini noodles, squashes. I don't do a lot of grains, so this is a perfect option for a non traditional noodle as well as a quick side. Here is the one I use, and I really like it. Easy to use and easy to clean. Directions are in another language but you can easily figure it out :) http://astore.amazon.com/wholelifesn0f-20/detail/B00012F3R2

Hey Jan, black pepper is what I used, sorry :) Also you could grate your parsnips, just grate it in large pieces. I chose the parsnips because they are sweet and yet still spicy. Spaghetti squash would work but you would have to add some spice to spice it up a bit.

Thanks for the response to my questions! Just how often do you use this "spiralizer", and for what other recipes/uses is it helpful? (I'm a gadget person, but only if it's really versatile and can't be duplicated by another one...) ;-)

Halle, not having a "spiralizer", how would you suggest preparing the parsnips? Also, how do you think this would work using spaghetti squash instead? And, what kind of pepper do you use? (I think the traditional is crushed red pepper...)
