The veggie solution!

Let's face it veggies can be boring and a little bland. Sometimes we could use a little imagination to get our kids (and ourselves!) eating healthier. I found this particular gem in my Avon Living brochure a few months back and I absolutely love it, and so do the kids!

This is Avon's version of the veggie spiral slicer! The tip has a metal prong and grips to hold the veggie of your choice as you twist it through the blades. Also the blades are on the inside so no little fingers will be cut in the process. It's a great way to make getting nutrition a little more fun. This works great for zucchini, yellow squash, cucumbers, and carrots (if they are big enough). You can use them as noodles for spaghetti, a fun new salad, or even as a side for your main course. My son loves being able to make the noodles for dinner!

You can find all sorts of veggie spiral slicers everywhere but I love the quality of avon products. And it goes right in the dishwasher! If you are interested in this particular spiral slicer it is currently priced at $ 12.99 at www.youravon.com/stephaniebabin
