We had a great harvest from the garden this morning and I wanted a dish that would be a bit more substantial than simply sauteing or roasting, without being heavy or too filling. It was well over 100 degrees here today and a heavy dish just didn’t appeal. This was even better than I had hoped to find. My entire family ate this for dinner and really liked it. I am already looking forward to making this again with different...
This is not your average applesauce. This applesauce is thick, chunky, sweet and full of flavor. You can eat it with a spoon or a fork. If you’ve never tried homemade applesauce, then you have no idea what you are missing. I started making this a few years ago and it has forever changed my taste for applesauce.Get New Recipessent to your inbox!Sign me up!We never share your information with third parties and will protect it in accordance...
My love for pattypan squash has reached an all new level. You might think I’d be tired of these squash by now, but I am still thrilled to have so many from our garden. We grilled these pattypan squash with the Ono and they were wonderful together. The squash texture was absolutely perfect. My only advice is to make sure that your slices are as even as possible. If your slices are not even, then the thinner portions will be...
The tomatoes are finally in abundance in my garden and I am so happy. When I saw the harvest this morning, I couldn’t imagine anything more perfect for dinner than a salad loaded with tomatoes. This is one of the most unique pasta shapes I’ve found to date. I am always looking for fun new varieties to try. What is your favorite pasta shape?

I’m feeling very Mary Poppins over here as I realize that just a spoonful of sugar transformed my favorite tomatoes into something altogether different! Perfectly bite size tomatoes are marinated in a combination of oil, vinegar and spices with just the right amount of sweetness. I am sold on this flavor combination. I’ve always liked tomatoes, but these are irresistible! I couldn’t stay out of them all afternoon as they were marinating...
This is such a fun recipe. I made zucchini sticks years ago and had more or less forgotten about them, until I was staring down more squash this past week. I’ve made them twice since then and I am likely to make them again before the summer is finished. I’ve made them with and without the Parmesan (trust me, you want the cheese) and they are delicious. Crisp on the outside and roasted on the inside, just make sure they are fully cooked...
Lightly sauteed, still crisp zucchini, tossed with just a bit of olive oil and sprinkled with salt and pepper. This was so delicious; I can not wait to make it again. My husband actually said, “wow” and he was eating this right out of the pan as I was getting dinner on the table. Let me tell you, that was a big deal. We are all starting to burn out on zucchini and the idea of a squash side dish that elicited a “wow” absolutely made...
Fresh cantaloupe, sweet grapes and perfectly ripe bananas were all that I needed to make my boys happy yesterday. They both thought that cantaloupe bowls were a special treat. This took me just a few minutes to put together. Seeing how happy it made my boys, I’ll be doing this again in the future.

Pulao is a common South Asian dish and the name basically means Pilaf. The flavors are different, but this is really just a simple vegetable rice pilaf. This was a hit with every person in my family and my youngest kept asking for more. The flavor is very mild, with some unique spices and flavors. Next time I make this, I’ll probably add some sauteed green chile, similar to the Aloo Bhaji I made last month. Easily adaptable to...
I am always happy this time of year to see stone fruits in abundance. I bought so many of them this week; I wanted to put them in a salad. I started to make a honey-lime vinaigrette to toss with the salad, but then I remembered my favorite poppyseed dressing. The dressing was absolutely perfect with this salad. I made this for lunch today and then I happily made it for dinner again tonight. I’m so glad that I have plenty of these fruits...
