In reply to Judy. Ali, do you think the sugars are too high?

Hi Ali,
I’m a huge fan and converted many of my friends & family to using spiralized veggies and your spiralized/website/cookbook. If I’m having company for dinner I go to your app or book for a recipe.
I feel a little silly that I’m a bit confused about something- how do you alter the recipe if the chicken & bok choy are grilled? Do I just sauté the scallions, ginger, garlic, and siracha, then add in the zucchini noodles, then top with the grilled chicken & Bok choy? Will there be enough “sauce”? I love to be cooking on the grill in the warm weather. More recipes & directions using grilled items would be great!
Thank you in advance! Keep the awesomeness coming!

In reply to Ali Maffucci.

Thanks for the quick response Ali. I appreciate knowing what you used specifically for this recipe. Toasted sesame oil is one of my most favorite flavors (unfortunately not my hubby’s). However I will definitely make this dish and will not share it with him – ha! (But I will make him a salad of his own – I’m really not mean!

In reply to Lois. Lois, I've used toasted and regular sesame interchangeably for years! It won't affect the taste too profoundly. Here, I used toasted!

Ali,
I am assuming when you mention sesame oil in your ingredients that you are meaning Toasted Sesame Oil. If I am mistaken and you use regular clear sesame oil for sauteeing, please let me know as I use both and I have noticed that a lot of recipes out there and in magazines and cookbooks too do not differentiate between the two. (As you can see I am a stickler for exact ingredients so I can really appreciate the taste and textures of the finished product.) Thanks in advance for a response!

This recipe looks so good! Is there is a replacement for rice vinegar? It’s something I don’t use so I don’t know if there is another common vinegar I could use.

In reply to Denise. Probably the sriracha she mentioned earlier in the post.

In reply to Amy B.. I usually use MyFitnessPal.com! They have an easy nutritional calculator.

Hi Ali, you have an amazing daily workload and I admire your self-discipline.
Sorry to add to it, but I really hope you can help. I remember another of your followers asking whether it would be possible for you to send recipes in a way that the picture of it can be printed together with the recipe on one page and you were going to look into this.
Any luck?
Would be great if this was possible.
Many thanks in advance
Edith from London

I read that you calculate the nutrition facts for your recipes. I have always been daunted by this task. Is there any easier way than dividing the nutrition facts for each of the amounts of the ingredients in the recipe? Maybe an app?
