French Toast

I made french toast for dinner last night. I haven’t had it in forever. And I LOVE it. Just the smell reminds me of being a child. My mom made it for breakfast/brunch/lunch (depended what time we all got up:) every Saturday. I tried a combo of my mom’s “recipe” (eggs and milk) and a …

Tuna Zucchini Cakes

I created a new recipe last night. I combined fish cakes and zucchini pancakes (I’ve made them both before). I based it on a Robin Miller recipe I made once. I didn’t measure anything, just added and mixed as I went. I prepped these in the morning. Then right before cooking them I coated them …

Zucchini Waffles

Last week I made blueberry topping (froze most of it). So I wanted to make waffles for a meal to try it out. And then I thought, I wonder if I could put zucchini in waffles?? So I did a quick search. Sure enough, I found some zucchini waffle recipes. I found one that uses …

Zucchini Fries

Yes, another zucchini recipe…and another success!! My husband and I both really liked these. I don’t remember where I got the recipe. I didn’t tag it. But they are very easy  to make and very tasty – a great side dish. We had them with grilled hot dogs (organic, all grass fed beef…very good) and …
