Did somebody try to make vegetable pasta? I want to use it also to be able to make for example spaghetti using zucchini or any other vegetable...

I haven't used it for veggies but I think if you do it may be a mess. This pasta maker is used to working with dough like substances so it kinda mushes things before it cuts it. I would try a viggie spiraler first

If you have a kitchen aid stand mixer you are ready to make ravioli and any other kind of pasta. You can're bet home made pasta. Good luck and have fun.

Take a look at the video on the Westinghouse site. I think it showed putting the pasta and water in at the same time which seems unusual. Then additional ingredients like brocolli and carrots were added so the end result was a complete dish.

Yes, with no problem. I have found whatever the cook time is on the package I put the water in and the pasta and cook for that amount of time, stir and add the same amount of additional time and the pasta comes out perfect! I've bought several Pasta Boats for family and friends and everyone loves them. It's the only "As seen on TV" item I've ever purchased that is worthwhile.

We have never tried them in soup. My mom made "spaghetti" with the zucchini and it was delicious (for a veggie). I still prefer pasta! LOL.

My friend dehydrates zucchini slices to use in soups and even after cooking two days they hold together nicely so I have started dehydrating them to use in my soups because with them in the vegetable soup I didn't miss the meat... I am going to try doing that with the noodle cuts too

I've only cooked pasta in this pot. You can cook them together, but you will have to see if the vegetable texture is what you like. Steaming vegetables is different than cooking them. They are crisper if you steam them.

I found some video instructions and written instructions @ ehow.com I just typed in popeil pasta maker instructions. Not exactly what you asked for but it might help.

Tom, thank you for your reply. I went to Grazia's website and asked the same question. Hopefully they will email the recipes to me. We'll see. Thanks again.

Yes--that is what I bought it for. I used the peeler to make the zucchini noodles, sauteed with a tomato and garlic in olive oil until a little soft, finished with a dusting of Parmesan cheese and a little chopped basil. I gave this peeler as Christmas gifts to my family members since I liked mine so much.

Yes, you can make all kinds of pasta in the pasta maker. It is the best invention ever! I don't know how I lived without it all these years! I put a whole bag or box of pasta in it with about 2 inches of water covering it and put the micro for 20 to 25 minutes and it's done. It's awesome because you don't have to stand around and stir it. And, it taste great! Don't think twice ... get it! :-)

It us much easier than a mandolin for making zucchini pasta...takes less time and less bloody knuckles too. We use it 3 or 4 times a week for 4 zucchini at a time.

It would depend on how much pasta you want to cook. If 1-2 servings, yes, I've actually done that with mine. But once the water level gets too high in the bottom, you end up sort of boiling/steaming what's in the top. I suppose it wouldn't make that much of a difference, but when I like my veggies lightly steamed, I use very little water. A larger version of this would do more servings nicely I'm sure!

I've only used a few times for zucchini. I think a food processor would chop it more. I think of a mandolin for slices. This spiralizer give you noodles, long noodles. Really cool. Kind of vague, hope this helps.

I've never tried vegetables, Linda, but don't see why not. If something like celery it might clog but others may be fine. Good Luck and let us know.Contessa

Pasta must be very dry: use 100gr of Flour per 1 medium Egg. Let it stay wrapped in plastic for half hour then use it...Plus: put a large plate under the machine and move it around while cutting the rigatoni....It works.Problem is with spaghetti, too thin...
