No. 3 : Get Creative
A *Spiralizer or “spiral vegetable peeler” is a fun kitchen gadget that will help you create long thin noodles from lots of different kinds of vegetables like zucchinis, potatoes, cucumbers, carrots, apples – even beets. If you don’t have a spiralizer, you can use a vegetable peeler to make long strands of veggies for the recipe.

Domaine de Chene-Columbe
Macon Villages France

Light and bright tasting, this chardonnay hails from the Burgundy region in France, the original home of the chardonnay grape. (You won’t see the name chardonnay on the label – this is a wine from the “old world” aka Europe, where wine is named for the place its from – Macon – not the grape in the wine.) The aroma of lemons and apples are reflected in the creamy taste of this affordable white. Its a great contrast to the slightly spicy taste of the salmon and sauce, and a super compliment to the fresh flavors of the veggie noodles.
