During the summer we always raid my parent's garden whenever we stop by to visit.
Really they don't mind - honest :)
I asked Madison to find me some zucchini and this is what she brought me. I could probably make a thousand zucchini muffins with this thing!
My favorite quick and easy summer side dish is Roasted Corn & Zucchini. It's super easy and good for you too. Use fresh corn cut off the cob if you have it, but frozen works also. I didn't have any red pepper when I made the recipe below, but it looks really pretty if you have one.
Roasted Corn & Zucchini
Zucchini, diced
1 cup corn, frozen or fresh cut off the cobb
1/2 onion, diced
red pepper, diced
olive oil
fresh ground salt & pepper
Combine zucchini, corn, onion and red pepper in a bowl and toss with olive oil.
Spread veggies out on a cookie sheet and sprinkle with freshly ground salt and pepper.
Bake at 425 for about 15 minutes. Now isn't that easy!
Yes, I stole the zinnia's from their garden too :)
Çok güzel bahçeniz var. Çok leziz ve iştah açıcı bir yiyecek olmuş ellerinize sağlık.
ReplyDeleteOut garden has exploded...no zucchini this year but the cucumbers have taken over! I wanted to let you know I love your site (and your color choice in mixers!) I've been reading through your recipes and I've been bookmarkign along the way. I have an award for you over at Sunny Bug: http://sunnybugworld.blogspot.com/2010/08/inspiration-substance.html
ReplyDelete...I meant "our" garden.
ReplyDeleteDarn but that thing is huge! I'm soooo jealous. My father in law has 12 acres and has a huge garden as well but he's in NC and I'm in FL. I did get some of his honey when I visited just recently.
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday!

Oh...that sounds delish! I posted a corn salad recipe this past week.....I'm into the corn thing! And soon to be into zucchini.....I have 3 sitting on my counter right now :) Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteAnd I thought my dad's zucchinis were huge! I have a post on my blog for zucchini flowers. Do you cook them? They are delicious!
