Posted on August 24, 2017 | 6 comments

This recipe might be my favorite way to enjoy zucchini. Zucchini is my favorite summertime produce, which is great because when you grow zucchini, you tend to end up with a lot of them! I started making these Italian zucchini mushroom sub sandwiches long before I became a gardener, and I have perfected the method over the years. What is your favorite way to enjoy zucchini?

Spicy Cilantro Jalapeno Tomato Pizza

Posted on August 17, 2017 | 12 comments

Have you ever tried a tomato basil pizza? Tomato goes so well with herbs, and basil is such a commonly used herb for pizza. Cilantro, however, is not that common for a pizza topping, but it is one of my favorite herbs. When my garden started producing loads of tasty heirloom tomatoes this summer, I decided to give cilantro a try on pizza! This spicy cilantro jalapeno tomato pizza is out of this world!

Tempeh Gyro Tacos with Cucumber Salsa

Posted on August 10, 2017 | 12 comments

It’s official, I’m obsessed with all things gyro! I absolutely love the explosion of flavors, especially the tzatziki. I remember the first gyro I ever had at a sandwich shop in college. The sandwich maker asked if I wanted to add the tzatziki, and I didn’t know what it was at the time. He explained that it’s a creamy sauce that you will either love or hate. Well, I loved it, needless to say. My husband loves tacos, so these tempeh gyro tacos with cucumber salsa were a success! Continue reading →

Peach Basil Pizza with Balsamic Drizzle

Posted on August 7, 2017 | 8 comments

This pizza is one of my favorites. Pizza is on regular rotation at my house, and it is always something special, like this peach basil pizza with balsamic drizzle. It is loaded with fresh summer flavors; we simply can’t get enough! I love to incorporate fresh seasonal ingredients on pizza. The peach is juicy and along with the balsamic drizzle, there is plenty of moisture so you don’t need any sauce. Top with melty cheese and some fresh herbs, you’ll be eating it all summer long!

Five Spice Shrimp Tacos with Rhubarb Ginger Sauce

Posted on July 24, 2017 | 10 comments

Have you guys tried chinese 5-spice powder yet? It’s been a popular up-and-coming spice for a while now, and I’m just now getting on board. Chinese five-spice is a blend of Szechwan pepper, star anise, cinnamon, cloves, and fennel. It has a wonderfully warming characteristic that pairs perfectly with other Asian flavors, such as ginger, and is not spicy. My five spice shrimp tacos with rhubarb ginger sauce are an amazing twist between Asian and Mexican cuisines! Continue reading →

Slow Cooker Italian Lentil Stuffed Zucchini Boats

Posted on July 21, 2017 | 12 comments

This month’s theme for the recipe redux was to avoid heating up the kitchen by using a cool cooking appliance (ie not the oven). I love my big slow cooker for soups, but I don’t eat many soups during summer. The zucchini in my garden have been plentiful for a few weeks now, at one point I had a pile of 14 on my kitchen counter! Therefore, zucchini boats were in order. To fit in with the redux theme, I made slow cooker Italian lentil stuffed zucchini boats! Continue reading →

Grilled Clam Stuffed Mushrooms with Tomato Relish

Posted on June 29, 2017 | 14 comments

I have a gigantic collection of cooking magazines that I have collected over the years. I’m pretty serious about my collection as well. My magazines are filed away according to the month published. When ever I need some recipe inspiration, or want to do some light reading I go find this months file. I tab all my favorite ideas so they are easy to find, but sometimes I will reread the magazine and see how my tastes have changed since I first tabbed it. Recently I did this and came across a stuffed mushroom recipe with a red pepper relish. I couldn’t believe that I hadn’t tabbed that recipe! I instantly wrote up my own variation and dubbed it worthy of a grill out night. And thus, grilled clam stuffed mushrooms with tomato relish was born. Continue reading →

Tzatziki Cucumber Dill Crackers

This week I have been having a lot of fun playing around with cracker toppings. Bite size food has to be able to impress in that single bite, so you know the flavors have to be good. Therefore, sampling all those flavors, such as my Banh Mi Crackers, has been a lot of fun, and delicious. The Breton Crackers that I received samples of have been great. I received the original flavor, which is quite tasty, and really enjoy their light and crisp texture. The size of the cracker is large enough to top with lots of veggies and smear with sauces, such as my Tzatziki Cucumber Dill Crackers. Continue reading →
