Oh.my.god. These gyros. Okay – I am not going to lie – they are LABOR INTENSIVE. But with proper planning and a weekend to work with – they can be done. And they are TOTALLY worth it.

Spaghetti with Shrimp in Creamy Tomato Sauce

by | February 28, 2014 | Recipes | 0 Comments

Not low calorie…But amazing!
