Zucchini!!!










I love Zucchini, mainly mixed with some ingredients in the form of Bread. My mom makes the best Zucchini bread! We have a Garden this year thanks to my sister-in-law's persistence and I am loving the Zucchini we have grown. I have not made bread yet, that's on my list! The kids love picking the zucchini's. I have discovered that I like zucchini sauteed in olive oil, seasoned with garlic salt, freshly ground pepper, lemon basil (home grown), lime basil (also home grown) and grated Parmesan. This evening, I made a pasta dish including my Zucchini we picked from the garden today(this is our sixth one so far). I made some of my seasoned breaded chicken. I sauteed the zucchini with the seasonings I listed above and threw in some tomatoes (I only had two little ones, so that is all I used- I wanted more). I added the noodles at the end and slid it onto my plate, topped it with chicken and I garnished it with a sprig of parsley and Voila!! It was delicious! Jason loved it and so did Lindsay and Stacy. I love having a Vegetable garden. I can't wait for my tomatoes to finally ripen!
