During Easter time in Ireland, I love to whip up this easy dish for my family. My mom always has three other types of meat in the oven, usually a duck, a goose, and a turkey. Sometimes beef, too. So trying to find the space to make this meat ends up in an annual argument. […]

We said that until we tried an inexpensive spiralizer from Oxo and in two minutes made long thin curly strands of zucchini. Looked like pasta. With the sauce, tasted like pasta […]
