My mom has always been my valentine. She is the one love in my life that I know will never go away. This year she gave my a spiralizer. If you don't own one or know what it is you need to! It is a way to turn vegetables into noodles. I have made a cold cucumber "noodle" salad with it, zucchini noodles, sweet potato curly fries... this thing is awesome! She got mine at William Sonoma for less than $40. This recipe uses sweet potatoes to make the noodles, if you don't have the gadget you could use spaghetti squash, or a peeler to make threads of potato then cut them into smaller "noodles".
