This is great to take along with you to a party. Its healthy - low carb and helps you stay on track. Its also good on celery,zucchini. You can use your imagination with this one. TIP for the Day: Cutting Green Onions I recently tried a recipe that called for 3/4 cup green onions. Instead of using a knife, I found that snipping the onions with a pair of kitchen scissors took only a few seconds. —Kristy B., Kelowna, British Columbia
