Top 7 Delish Zucchini Recipes

July 28, 2020 By Emily Gammon Leave a Comment

Zucchini Recipes – they’ll change your life!  Promise!  Zucchini is one of the most versatile vegetables that you will enjoy. This is great news for everyone who grows zucchini because these plants often produce exceptional amounts of vegetables each year.  (See our post about how to preserve garden vegetables if you just have too much zucchini.) Before you freeze it, consider using it!

Some people may feel that zucchini is a little bland.  Therefore, they are not really interested in using it while cooking. The truth is, the mild flavor of zucchini makes it an exceptional ingredient for almost any dish because you can season it to taste. [Read more…]

Healthy Vegetable Lasagna Recipe

August 30, 2019 By Christina Gammon Leave a Comment

I found this recipe on Pinterest.  It’s wonderful.  It’s easy.  Therefore, I couldn’t wait to try it! Pinch of Yum has this amazing vegetable alfredo sauce that MAKES this meal.  Additionally, it makes it HEALTHY. Yes. Healthy. The secret? Cauliflower! Cauliflower alfredo sauce is creamy and delicious. The best part is you don’t know you’re missing the calories!Vegetarian Lasagna made with cauliflower

Vegetable Lasagna Ingredients:

For the cauliflower alfredo sauce
5 large cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoons butter
5 cups cauliflower florets
6-7 cups vegetable broth or water
1 teaspoon salt (more to taste)
½ teaspoon pepper (more to taste)
½ cup milk (more to taste)
Parmesan cheese to taste

For the lasagna
10 lasagna noodles
4 cups cauliflower Alfredo sauce
5 cups veggies (I used chopped fresh greens, grated carrots, fresh and canned tomatoes)
3 cups mixed shredded cheese like Mozzarella, Provolone, Parmesan, etc.
salt and pepper to taste

Vegetable Lasagna Instructions:

For the cauliflower sauce:
Saute the garlic with butter in a large nonstick skillet over low heat until the garlic is soft and fragrant.
Bring the cauliflower in the water or broth for 7-10 minutes or until cauliflower is fork tender.
Do not drain.
Use a slotted spoon to transfer the cauliflower pieces to a blender or food processor.
Add 1 cup vegetable broth or cooking liquid, sauteed garlic/butter, salt, pepper, and milk.
Blend or puree for several minutes or until very smooth.

For the lasagna:
Preheat oven to 375°.
Boil the lasagna noodles for a few minutes until they are just starting to soften but still stiff and cool enough to handle.
Spread a spoonful of cauliflower sauce on the bottom of a 9-inch square glass baking dish with a drizzle of olive oil to prevent sticking.
Layer lasagna noodles, ½ cup sauce, one-fourth of the veggies, a good sprinkle of salt, ½ cup cheese, and ¼ cup sauce (I put the sauce in each layer twice – once under the veggies and once on top).
Repeat layers 4 times, ending with noodles.
Cover the top noodle layer with ½ cup sauce and the remaining 1 cup of cheese.
Cover with greased foil and bake for 25 minutes.
The liquid should be bubbling along the sides of the dish.
Remove the foil and bake uncovered for another 10-20 minutes or until the cheese is golden brown to your liking.
Cool for a few minutes before cutting and serving.

Notes:
I used a combination of fresh diced tomatoes and canned diced tomatoes. If you do use tomatoes, be sure to drain the excess liquid out before adding them to the lasagna, otherwise, it will be too watery. I also found that sprinkling salt over each of the veggie layers helped it to be more flavorful, especially as leftovers.

All American Chop Suey Recipe

November 15, 2014 By Christina Gammon 5 Comments

The colder it gets out, the more I want to make comfort foods. This All American Chop Suey recipe is one of the easiest recipes I’ve ever made and one of the most satisfying comfort foods there is.  LOL, it’s probably why my mom taught it to me. When I was young, I was not a cook, that’s for sure.

Because my mom taught it to me, the only way I know how to cook it is in LARGE amounts so we usually freeze half and eat half. If you like chop suey, you will love this hearty recipe! And if you love it, please share it! Chop Suey

Mom’s Comfort Food Tuna Casserole

November 6, 2014 By Christina Gammon Leave a Comment

Mom’s Tuna Casserole recipe is home to me. My mom is an amazing cook and out of ALL the mouth-watering recipes, this is the one I love the most and request for my birthday. Every time I go for a visit she makes this for us. She usually makes a double batch so she can send some home for me, freeze some for another time and have some leftovers for herself. Yup, I’m pretty spoiled.Tuna Casserole

I wish I lived closer to mom. I don’t get home as often as I’d like so sometimes I make a batch myself. Even though I follow the recipe to a tee, it’s never quite the same. The secret ingredient, without a doubt, is mom’s love.
