Grilled Squash and Zucchini
A refreshing summer vegetable medley.
Mediterranean Summer Tomatoes
This is a very simple and yummy side dish. I learned in while living in France from an old Mediterranean lady. This is always a hit!
Chow Chow I
A way to use all those fresh summer veggies.
Garlicky Summer Squash and Fresh Corn
A delicious and different way serve two favorite summer vegetables, squash and corn!
Fried Stuffed Squash Blossoms
If you have a garden and you planted zucchini, you will have an abundance of squash blossoms. These are just amazing, with that tangy goat cheese filling and that batter: so simple, light, and crisp.
Summer Vegetable Ratatouille
My favorite way to serve this ratatouille is with crepes. Very delicious. I also add a mixed green salad on the side, and some French bread with butter for a wonderful meal. It makes a large batch, but I found that it freezes really well for future use.
Spicy Refrigerator Dill Pickles
This is a wonderful, spicy dill pickle with a nice hint of sweetness. Plan to at least double the amount of crushed red pepper if you like it REALLY spicy...YUM!
Grilled Cabbage I
Cabbage steamed in foil with butter and garlic. The perfect sidekick to grilled ribs or chicken!
Oven-Roasted Asparagus
Salty and savory, the roasting method kills the natural bitterness of asparagus. Try it next to grilled fish or lamb.
Roasted Garlic Cauliflower
Wonderful roasted cauliflower, my 11 year old son loves this! Add more spices and herbs to suit your taste.
Yellow Squash Casserole
Tender squash, gooey cheese and crunchy crackers make this a memorable side dish or a hearty main course. This is a great dish that can be made with low-fat ingredients and is still just as good!
Boston Baked Beans
A wonderful old-fashioned baked bean flavor. This recipe has served by family for 29 years and originally came from my mother-in-law. It tastes great served with fresh cornbread or biscuits and honey. Although you need to allow time for soaking and simmering the beans, this recipe is still quite easy.
