I spent a lot of time exploring online today. I watched some very interesting sewing videos, and I looked up recipes. I decided to try a new zucchini recipe tonight. Mom and I loved it! Dave is not a fan of zucchini. He ate some, but wasn't impressed. That's okay. It means more for Mom and me!
I couldn't find the recipe again when it was time to fix dinner, so I did my best to remember. I sliced the zucchini into about 1/2" slices, coated them with olive oil, and seasoned them with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. I spread them out on a cookie sheet covered in aluminum foil, topped them with shredded cheese, and baked them at 425ยบ for 10 minutes. Yum!
I did manage to tat two button ornaments today, both in my December 8 pattern.
I'm still working with the same ball of size 40 Lizbeth Red Burst. I'm amazed at how much can be made with one little ball of thread!
Zucchini looks really good! I’ll try that. My favorite is slicing length wise on a mandolin, like ribbons. Heat garlic in olive oil in a big fry pan. Then add the zucchini, tossing with tongs for a few minutes. Salt and pepper, little lemon at the end.
ReplyDeleteI love making it that way, too! Sometimes I add a little carrot and onion for extra color and flavor. There's nothing like fresh veggies!
DeleteSounds like a good way of cooking zucchini. Or baby marrows as we call them here.
ReplyDeleteI thought the extra spices and cheese might entice Dave. They didn't. I think it's the texture he doesn't like. Oh, well. I guess I'll keep trying!
DeleteYour button ornaments are so pretty!! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Sue!
DeleteSounds an interesting recipe, I think I would like to try it but I have a husband like yours.
ReplyDeleteYour button ornaments are lovely in red, I keep seeing them on Facebook and I am impressed, I have not done much tatting over the last few weeks and now we have a heatwave, its just a bit hot today
I'm lucky to have Mom here. She'll try almost anything!
DeleteYOur recipe looks good! I remember my Mom used a cast iron skillet and pan fried them - she used simple saltine crackers and egg! Sounds better to bake them.
ReplyDeleteThe recipe popped up on my Facebook feed. I hardly ever check out new recipes, but I'm glad I tried this one!
