Pasta Arrabbiata with Carrot Noodles

Remember how I used to blog?

Yea me too.

I have been terrible about blogging lately. Not because I haven’t created lots of tasty treats but I feel like I really haven’t had much to say.

Do you ever have that?

Either way, I am super excited to be sharing this post today because it has to do with the amazing spiralizer I told you about with my Zoodles post.

I was invited by Tuttorosso Tomatoes to share a recipes for their “Inspiralize the Spring” promotion. You can find all the details here, but I will go ahead and tell you what it is all about anyways.. 😉

During the “Inspiralize the Spring” promotion, which runs from March 25 through April 15 on Facebook, they will give away 650 Tuttorosso aprons, 15 copies of Ali Maffucci’s cookbook Inspiralized, 60 of Ali’s custom Inspiralizers, and a Grand Prize package that includes an Inspiralizer, a signed copy of Inspiralized, a Tuttorosso apron, and collection of kitchen gadgets all packed in a picnic basket.

How much fun is that?

I have to admit that when I first saw the Spiralizer, I really had no idea what to think of it. Since I got mine, I have been having a blast coming up with healthier versions of pasta dishes that Patrick and I love.

For this particular event I really wanted to do something special, because let’s face it. That is a GREAT contest!

For my “Inspiralize the Spring” recipe, I chose carrots.

Carrots into noodles?!

YES!

Any of you who know me, know that I freakin’ love carrots.

Literally eat them every single day and if allowed I would dip them in peanut butter at every meal.

I was SO happy to see a recipe featuring caoodles. Yea, I just said “caoodles”.

At first, I have to admit I was a liiiiitle skeptical, but man oh man. They came out great!

Even the texture was surprisingly noodle like.

I decided to use tri-colored carrots because I love tri-colored pasta. I think it is fun.

Even though as a kid I would pick out the red and green ones in my mac & cheese because they “tasted funny”. Which they didn’t, but I was a picky child. What can I say?

I hope you go on over and check out the Giveaway!
