I recently ordered a vegetable spiralizer after seeing a plethora of zucchini noodle - "zoodle" - recipes pop up.  Let's be honest - during the Winter, it's easy to pack on extra pounds.  The cold weather doesn't exactly have me craving Summertime smoothies, salads and fresh fruit and vegetables.  I tend to crave heavy foods, lots of carbs and meals that sit in your belly and warm you up.

Whether or not you're still freezing your booty off, Spring will be here next month. As we keep dreaming about warmer weather, let's start to consider lighter dishes to get us in top shape for those sunshine days ahead!

A recent trip to the farmer's market produced some healthier meal inspiration. Among my haul were three medium zucchini squashes.  One was roasted with other veggies as a side dish.  Two were turned into a Thai-inspired cold noodle salad.  This salad makes for a light lunch that is full of flavor with a satisfying crunch.  It's green, raw, vegan-friendly and completely healthy!
