How do you make courgettes into spaghetti?

I have a lurch machine thing that I put the courgette on, turn the handle and it slice the courgettes into thin spaghetti like strands. Then I use it like I would spaghetti. Not quite the same of course but an enjoyable substitute - even my husband eats it instead of spaghetti now!!

My machine is like this http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B00008W ... X110_SY190

But you can get similar things that do the same job.
It's better with softer veg, but you can use it with harder veg too.

wow - recipe please??
 
I've just started low carbing and my diet is along the lines of:

Breakfast: Black coffee with cream (the flavoured ones are lush - try cinder toffee), berries and nuts. At weekends I opt for eggs and bacon.

Lunch: Salad with cheese and a variety of meats. Dessert spoon of coleslaw.

Dinner: Meat with veggies, or omelette.

Snacks: Nuts, cottage cheese,apple, cold meats.

How can I improve this?
