Notes

To spiralize the red pepper, cut off or chop off the stem. Place the bottom of the pepper on the blade part, and press so the handle is holding the pepper tight. Then spiralize it, core and all.
To spiralize the red onion, chop the ends off (leave the onion whole). Remove the peel from the onion. Place onion on the blade part and press the handle up against the other end. Spiralize it.
