cucumber noodles

sweet

Just wondering if cucumbers are good to use as noodles, i seem to digest them easier and lighter on the stomach. Did anyone try using a cucumber instead of zucchini for noodles? Is there any good recipes for it and is those dehydrated spices like oregano still considered raw. I want to try and find fresh oregano and if not is dry spices, herbes at the store heated ? would it be good to use?

Oh yes, I've used these a lot, and they are much lighter, more hydrated as noodles than zuchini. In the past I would mash them together with tomatoes, sea vegetables, and green onions, sometimes with a coconut sauce. I never had a problem with seeds. It depends on the product whether it is heated--if you go for high quality organic spices you are safer.

i went to my farmers market and found fresh oregano, it tasted amazing with the cucumber noodles, i removed the seeds from the cucumber and it worked well. I mixed it up with tomatoe ,mushroom,red bell pepper, parsley, and oregano. it almost tasted like pizza LOL!!

cucumber is harder to make noodles from because there are so many seeds. i've tried and i can usually just peel the outer few layers.
