Book Review: Inspiralized by Ali Maffucci
Turn Vegetables into Healthy, Creative, Satisfying Meals
There is almost no expert on the planet that says we need to eat less vegetables. In fact, most experts and lay people alike agree that we all need to be eating more vegetables. But it sure can be difficult to get in enough servings per day! Now, with this book and the handy gadget that it revolves around, it can be easy!
I enjoyed the author’s story as to how she got started with “inspiralizing” (turning almost any hard raw vegetable into long thin noodles).
Ms. Maffucci includes lots of helpful tips like, how to choose which blade to use, how to store uncooked noodles, yields and cook times, recommended pantry items, and most important of all, how to avoid watery sauce.
Some other things I appreciated about this book was that it didn’t only have recipes for just a few vegetables, like carrots, zucchini and cucumbers. No, it included recipes for twenty two vegetables, including some not so common ones, which is a good way to get a wider variety of vegetables into your diet!
Not only that, it has a wide variety of the type of recipes. They were not all for side dishes or main dishes. There were breakfast recipes, snack recipes, soup recipes, salad recipes, sandwich recipes, dessert recipes and more!
The recipes themselves each had full color photos, nutritional information, codes for common dietary restrictions (vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, paleo) and easy to understand instructions.
If you’ve been looking for ways to get more vegetables into your diet this book (and along with the required gadget–>>Paderno World Cuisine Spiralizer) then this book is for you!!
