Dear Ali,
I want you to know that you are helping more people than you can possibly ever appreciate. I am an oncologist in Nashville and trying to help patients find their way to a healthy diet is a daily part of my counseling for the folks I see. I always give them a link to your blog and explain that you have found a way to incorporate lots of vegetables into recipes they would have never considered. They appreciate a fun and understandable resource in a quest to improve their health. The ACS recommends 10 servings of fruits and vegetables a day with a tilt toward the veggie side. That is an intentional practice and not what most people think about every day. Personally I have both your cookbooks and give them as presents to people I love most. I have been through about three spiralizers (but did give one away) and use mine at least once or twice a week.
So, keep up the great work and know that you are enhancing the lives of so many with your approach to cooking eating and life!
Enjoy some down time over the holidays and Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Looks good! Do you have any suggestions to make it vegan-without eggs? I was trying to think of something else that would bind the potatoes.

In reply to Sandy.

You could, but sweet potatoes aren’t as starchy as russet potatoes – so they wouldn’t bind as well, but would still get the job done!

In reply to Elizabeth King. That recipe plugin was causing our website to load slowly and crash, so we had to use a new plugin!

Wondering why you are not using Big Oven for saving recipes to anymore. I don’t have meal planner & don’t want to pay the fee for it.’
Thanks

Is the nutritional info based one a serving from a portion 1 of 4 or 1 of 8? Can’t wait to make this. Perfect for breakfast or dinner. Thanks

Sounds yummy! Do you think it would work with something like turnip or rutabaga noodles?

Could you make this with sweet potatoes instead?
