I know I said that I was going to embrace fall. Yet here I am posting about summer vegetables…still. At the farmers market this morning there were still so many yummy summer vegetables to enjoy, I couldn’t help myself! There were a few butternut squash, but I have all winter to enjoy the long lasting squash (which is another great vegetable to roast, by the way). So there you have it, summer roasted veggies with my special seasoning blend!

Last week I was all about savoring summer. I even picked up a few zucchinis at the farmers market this weekend because I don’t want to let go! I finally have realized however, that I must embrace fall because those bone chilling days of winter will come shortly after. Nothing says fall to me like chili. This chili recipe is great for this time of year when you can still get locally grown peppers.

Summer squash is almost gone for the season. Sigh. Depending on where you live you might be able to find some last of the season fruits to enjoy in this dish! Buttery summer squash makes an excellent gratin. I jazzed this southwest summer squash gratin up by adding jalapeno and sweet corn. A little spicy and sweet balance nicely and add something special to this gratin.

Pickles are a favorite snack of mine. They are crunchy, briny and full of flavor, but light and not calorie ridden. Its funny to me that pickled cucumbers are known as pickles, because you can pickle just about any vegetable. I love to pickle peppers, asparagus, and okra! Try these homemade dill pickles with jalapenos!

This recipe has been an Alison classic for a long time. I have shared it with many friends and family and it is time that it comes to the blog. I love Cajun food. It is a passion of mine to create recipes for Cajun dishes. Etoufee is a classic Cajun dish and this recipe is made with trout!
