"A food processor makes really quick work of cutting up the zucchini, but a good sharp box grater will work just fine too. It is a lot easier to shred than cheese! This tasty side is high in fiber so it fills you up, and the zucchini gets nice and sweet as it cooks! I like the zucchini slices on top as an indicator as to what's inside! Very clever and cute!"

"I love to serve dishes like this when hosting a dinner party, since I think it looks so elegant in it's natural "shell" as opposed to something scooped out onto your plate! I'm not sure whether you're formally supposed to eat the squash skin or not, but I really like it - just like I like the crusty brown skin on a baked potato!"

"I go salmon fishing several times a year on the Grand River in southwest Michigan when they are running upstream - some of the best fish I have ever tasted! I love to prepare them this way, and I always cook extra since the leftovers are awesome too. I like it on salads, or even as a snack on crackers over the next couple of days!"

"Roasted tomatoes are one of my favorite ways to use up the abundance in my garden in the summer, but sometimes you don't want to run your oven for just that. I'd put them in while you're already cooking something else! No fuss! You could also use the jarred sun dried tomatoes packed in oil that find at the supermarket, and toss them right in at the end."

"The pretty orange sauce that the pasta is dressed in has a great smooth texture and slightly nutty flavor from the nutritional yeast. I could see this being used in place of a cheese sauce for a lot of different things - tossed with broccoli or cauliflower, or to top a baked potato to name a few!"

Preserving Meats

Preserving meat is a great way to get more from meats. Try canned meat. Canned meats such as canned chicken and canned beef are tasty. Try jerky and jerky recipes for beef jerky, turkey jerky and chicken jerky too. Hooray for beef jerky recipes!
