Best of all, she tells you how to customize them for whatever vegetables you have on hand and whatever your personal goal may be—losing weight, following a healthier lifestyle, or simply making easy meals at home. Here, too, are tons of technical tips and tricks; nutritional information for each dish and every vegetable you can possibly spiralize; and advice for spiralizing whether you’re feeding just yourself, your family, or even a crowd. So bring on a hearty appetite and a sense of adventure—you’re ready to make the most of this secret weapon for healthy cooking.

From the author of Inspiralized comes the New York Times-bestselling, ultimate guide to spiralizing, with clean meals that fit into any diet, from paleo to vegan to gluten-free to raw. As the creator of the wildly popular blog and the author of the runaway bestselling cookbook on the topic, Ali is indisputably the authority on spiralizing. Inspiralize Everything is organized alphabetically by type of produce, allowing you to cook with whatever you already have on hand, what comes in your CSA box, or what you find at the farmer’s market.
