16 Spiralized Veggie Recipes for Spring

16 Spiralized Veggie Recipes for Spring

This post includes 16 Spiralized Veggie Recipes for Spring from a handful of my favorite food bloggers. I’m collecting light and fresh homemade meals to enjoy as the weather warms up.

 

This post includes affiliate links.

Spring is only 7 days away and I could not be more excited. It was chilly this morning and it snowed this afternoon, but sunny and warmer days are coming. I’m ready to break out my spring coat, pack away my winter hats and take C to the park again on a regular basis. His laugh while enjoying a ride on the swings is infectious.

I’m sharing this post as inspiration to enjoy lighter meals this spring. A few years ago my mother-in-law gifted me a spiralizer. It is still one of my favorite kitchen gadgets, especially for zucchini and sweet potatoes. One of the best things about spiralized veggies is how fast you can cook them!

Check out these amazing veggie “noodle” ideas by clicking on the recipe link below.

 

Ginger Lime Carrot Noodles from Tasting Page

I haven’t tried spiralizing carrots before but this recipe looks delicious and simple to prepare. This is a dish that doesn’t require cooking and sounds perfect for warm spring weather.

 

Zucchini Spaghetti with Lemony Kale Pesto from Erica’s Recipes

This vegetarian recipe includes lemon zest, lemon juice and walnuts in a savory kale pesto.

 

Spiralized Greek Cucumber Salad from Simple Sassy Scrumptious

I’m a huge fan of Greek flavors. Spiralized cucumber is a smart idea as an alternative to zucchini.

 

Taco Zoodle Bowls from Chicago Jogger

This is my own recipe, and one of my favorites. The recipe is Whole30 compliant and paleo since I didn’t use any cheese or sour cream.

 

Veggie Burrito Bowls with Sweet Potato Noodles from Veggies Save the Day

I love a good burrito bowl but haven’t tried it with sweet potato noodles. Tasty idea!

 

Superfood Spiralized Salad from The Belly Rules the Mind

This salad recipe includes quinoa and huge chunks of mango – looks like a super fresh lunch or dinner.

 

Spiralized Carrot Beet & Apple Salad from Apples for CJ

Combining carrots, beets and apples is a unique flavor and looks extra crunchy.

 

Caprese Chicken Zoodle Bowls from Chicago Jogger

Caprese is a favorite light meal in my house, especially when served over a bed of zoodles. This particular recipe is topped with grilled chicken, but it also works well as a vegetarian dish.

 

Lemon Parmesan Zoodles from Hearth & Vine

I would eat this as a side dish for a summer barbecue – lemon + parmesan is so good.

 

Spiral Vegetable Tart from Preppy Kitchen

What a gorgeous vegetable tart! This would be perfect for an Easter gathering with family.

 

BLT Sweet Potato Noodle Bowls from Chicago Jogger

Out of all of the spiralizer recipes we have tried, this one is my favorite. Baking sweet potato “noodles” gives them a soft or crunchy texture, depending on how long you leave them in the oven. Delicious.

 

Tahini Salmon and Zucchini Bowl from My Kitchen Love

I’m always looking for another reason to use tahini in a sauce. Pairing it with salmon is a great spring dinner idea.

 

DIY Broccoli Stem Slaw from Make the Best of Everything

I am definitely guilty of throwing away my broccoli stems instead of using them. I could get at least a dish or two out of spiralizing and making them into a slaw instead.

 

15 Minute Sweet Chili Shrimp Zoodles from Salt & Lavender

This sweet chili shrimp dish looks tasty and perfectly spicy.

 

Zesty Veggie Noodle Salad from The Forked Spoon

Spring produce = all the colors. I love the idea of combining everything into a salad.

 

Butternut Squash Noodles with Spring Pesto from Neil’s Healthy Meals

Butternut squash can be used in spring and summer too! I love this use of butternut squash noodles with a spring pesto.
