What is the "machine" you use to spiral cut the zuchinni? It is easy to use? Is it easy to clean? I'm anxious to try your recipe. It looks delicious.

Right you are Attosa..Veggetti. Bought it at my local grocery store. It's great for the over abundance of squash I have yearly in my garden and fun food too!~

Attosa is correct. It's Veggetti. It is simple to clean and wastes nothing! I am not a big buyer of extra kitchen stuff due to space and frugality but I am happy about this purchase and feel it was worth it since you can spiralize any solid fruit or veggie as long as it isn't very fibrous..You just twist it down into the center.
