I steam it for a couple minutes. We also eat the zucchini and summer squash without cooking, just cover with heated sauce.
There are also commercial,products available. I’m sure I’ve seen beets and butternut squash. But it saves 75% to do your own spiralizing. You can buy a device for about $10-25 on Amazon I think. Mine has the crank handle, but there are other styles.

Actually had real pasta tonight. Ordered takeout from a nearby Italian place. I started with pasta fagioli soup and had spaghetti with peppers and sausages. But if I’m cooking, it’s almost always spiral squash under the sauce.

toasted cheese & calabrese salami on toasted baguette
kettle jalapeño chips
(I haven’t had the healthiest foods today! Lol)
zero dessert
Agreed - I definitely saw the smyth price list. It’s cheaper than other tasting menus as is the wine pairing. Total bargain for this caliber of meal.

Jerk chicken maple smoked with my "signature" turmeric coconut rice. I'm quietly confident my signature rice could bring peace to the Middle East. I got to work on my jerk game though. The marinade was too mild. Rennovations are over so I'm loving being back on the coals.
