Things to do with all of your extra Zucchini

Image
It's fall here in Utah and everyone has loads of that green vegetable Zucchini in their gardens and no one knows what to do with it. So here's a top ten list of things to do with all of that extra Zucchini. 1. Doorbell ditch your neighbors. They'll love you for it! There's actually an day called "Leave a Zucchini on your neighbor's porch day," it's August 8th, too bad I missed it!  2. Take it to church and look for unlocked cars to leave it in. (Remind me to always leave ours locked!) 3. Donate it to the food bank. I'm sure they could always use more Zucchini right? 4. Carve it into a jack-o-lantern. Sounds fun, but doubt that it really would work. 5. Put them in your neighbor's mailboxes for a nice surprise.  6. Take them to the office and leave them on co-worker's chairs or maybe in their desks. This sounds like a fun idea! 7. Do any of your friend's have huge purses, that'd be the perfect place for a Zucchini, just sayin'! 8....

AN AVOCADO WELL-STUFFED

Image
If you know me, you know that I cook. Boy oh boy, do I ever! I consider cooking to be not only my passion but my gift. Not everyone is lucky enough to know what their gift is. I have cooked for many different families through the years and each one has brought something 'to the table', so to say, that has helped to broaden my horizons.  "Cookery is not chemistry. It is an art. It requires instinct and taste rather than exact measurements."~Marcel Boulestin, from "Petits et grands plats" Last night I did a dinner party for the family that I work full time for (actually that would be 5 months out of the year), and it was the lady of the house's birthday. Rack of Lamb starred as the main course along with sides of fresh stewed corn cut from the cob and a lovely Spinach Herb Rice Bake. But the stand out star of the evening was the salad. I had made it many times before using the recipe from one of the 'house cookbooks', but on this evening I could ...

Bread Sticks

Image
One of the features of our new blog is going to be focusing on some of our favorite recipes. And I get to be first. This is one of our family's favorite recipes. We've made this recipe two times in the last couple of weeks. I love how versatile it is, you can use this recipe for bread sticks, pizza dough, calzones, or almost anything you need a bread dough for and it will taste great in any of them. I also love that there's room for help from kids in this recipe. Our 6 year-old loves to "paint" the bread sticks with garlic and butter (and it's amazing that she then eats them, she's never liked garlic before being able to help make these!) and our 11 year old enjoys helping me shape them into sticks. I also love how simple the recipe is, it goes together very quickly, it's almost as easy as just buying the Costco bread sticks! I just realized that I don't have a picture of these. Oh, darn! I guess I'll just have to make them again so that I can ...
