Recipe Tips

  • I prefer to eat the sweet potato pasta noodles right away, as they taste the most flavorful immediately.
  • You could serve the sweet potato pasta with a creamy sauce, or a simple pasta sauce. We think these are perfectly wonderful without an additional pasta sauce.
  • If you decide you like making sweet potato pasta you have to try out this recipe for steak fajita zoodles, it’ll further solidify your obsession with spiralizing, I promise! Sweet potato linguini and other zoodle recipes are great for anyone who might be dealing with a gluten intolerance too. They can be cooked up dairy free as well so they’re amazing for special dietary needs.
  • You’ll end up with a long core that comes out during the spiralizing process, you can chop that up a bit and include it or you can compost it or toss it. Just be aware, if you’ve never made zoodles before, that it’s normal.
  • You can make any kind of vegetable pasta easily with a spiralizer. I love this one, I use it pretty regularly to make zoodles and all variety of other spiralized vegetables!

    Will these keep in the fridge? I like to meal prep 2 or 3 lunches at a time. I’d like to make bowls with the “noodles”, chicken breast bite-size pieces and broccoli.

    1. This sounds delicious! I’ve kept these for 2-3 days in the fridge.
