Linda and I both love a good risotto and have blogged many. Today I took my leftover wild mushroom risotto and added zucchini and roasted red peppers then turned them into cakes for lunch. Served with a simple garlic & lemon aioli – they were delicious! Continue reading
I received a BIG box of farm-fresh vegetables…so big that we had an abundance of veggie meals day after day. Some of them made it into this tasty dish. Chunks of marinated chicken breasts, freshly diced zucchini, green beans, carrots, onion, red & yellow peppers and asparagus stir-fried and served over lo mein noodles with a deliciously thick broth…Be prepared to serve the family a second helping!

Turns out this was a great breakfast appetizer and is great at room temperature too… Continue reading

It’s Burger Time! Having a burger doesn’t mean you have to eat unhealthy! I love Ratatouille – a traditional French vegetable stew made with eggplant and zucchini and other healthy veggies.
