These summer squash recipes belong in your to-do list. It is time for squash.

Why?

Summer squash is so versatile! I suppose some would call it bland but it is cheap, easy to cook, and delicious. I eat it all summer long and then I switch to the winter squashes (butternut and acorn).

Roasted vegetables tacos are for Taco Tuesday. You need to change it up sometimes.

Are these tacos as easy as meat tacos? No. I mean how can you beat browning meat and adding a flavoring packet? Too easy!

Waffle Iron Potato Cakes: Turn the Oven Off

May 22, 2023   12 Comments

Waffle iron potato cakes are a replacement for baking. You don’t need a hot oven right now.

A cottage cheese snack can be a perfect way to make it to the next meal. But cottage cheese is so boring on its own!

Grilled Zucchini Recipe: Marinate Like Meat

Grilled Zucchini Recipe: Marinate Like Meat

May 6, 2023   6 Comments

My grilled zucchini recipe treats this squash like a steak. Marinate, sear, and serve.

The grill seems to be used for hamburgers and hot dogs - and not enough vegetables. Vegetables are so good with a wee bit of char just like a burger.

This chia seed chocolate pudding recipe is for those who want to dip their toes in the chia seed pool. About 4 years ago, I wondered why anyone would use chia seeds for anything.
