Lurch Spiralo (vegetable slicer)

This is one of my favorite kitchen tools that I wish to share with you. It is called a Lurch Spiralo ,the German version of a "vegetable spiral slicer" or a "mandalin". Once I had reached my goal weight,my sister Nicole from Calgary sent me this as a gift. Thanks sis, I truly appreciate it!!!
You can always purchase a regular vegetable spiral slicer at Canadian Tire or Walmart for about $25. I use this regularly to make my vegetable noodles, home fries, prepare vegetables for my salads etc....
What I like about the Lurch Spiralo is first of all it is very easy to use, washes well and uses no electricity at all only muscle power, which means you can take it anywhere with you which is great!!!

#1 idea;Vegetable noodles
I usually make zucchini or sweet potato spirals. I place them in a steam basket in a cooking pot for 5 minutes(al dente). Serve it with a nice organic tomato sauce and it is absolutely delicious.

#2 idea;Vegetable home fries
I often use this to make our home fries. Using sweet potatoes or parsnips,use desired blade. Place the fries in a bowl with organic extra virgin olive oil , add your favorite spices, place it on a cookie sheet and bake it for approximately 20 minutes in a 400 degree oven. It really doesn't take long so stay close to the stove.
You can eat this with some nice homemade salsa, ketchup, hummus etc...mmmm...

#3 idea; fancy vegetables for salads
You can slice any desired vegetable and make them look extra special for any salad or as a side dish.

I hope that this shows you how easy it really is to make your own noodles and homemade fries. You can make great tasting food with live ingredients. I eat this regularly and I know that my body will digest it easily and not give me bad cramps or acid reflux. Try it, impress your guests and enjoy real food!!!
