Cauliflower Garlic Bread

CSA - Wheat free meals are a fun challenge. We made a wonderful dinner of zucchini "pasta" with bolognese, and cauliflower garlic bread on the side. Delicious and no wheat side effects. My daughter eats a Paleo diet. The original recipe is hers, with a little tweaking by me.

Zucchini "Pasta" with Bolognese Sauce

CSA - What to do with large, beautiful, organically grown zucchini fresh from our CSA farmers? Turn it into "pasta"! We are cutting down on our wheat intake, and we've been feeling so much better. But, what do you do when you crave pasta? Use zucchini instead!

Caipirinha Avocado Lime Jalapeno Chicken Salad

CSA - Community Supported Agriculture - This week our farmers sent plenty of cucumbers and the first tomatoes of the season. The fresh smell of cucumbers reminded me of a delicious drink that we had in California at Samba Brazilian Steakhouse and Lounge at Universal Studios City Walk. The drink is a variation of the traditional Brazilian Caipirinha.





Stuffed Cabbage Rolls

Community Supported Agriculture - What do you do with a huge head of cabbage? Well, two things come to mind, either make coleslaw or make stuffed cabbage. I love my mom's stuffed cabbage, but in all my adult cooking years I have never even attempted to make stuffed cabbage, but guess what? It turned out great! And I discovered a few time saving tips too!

Green Tomatillo Salsa - Salsa Verde


CSA - Community Supported Agriculture - Our delivery from our farmers this week contained cilantro and green onions - time for salsa! We love tomatillo salsa (salsa verde). It is such a refreshingly cool taste - with a kick of jalapeno too. This is my sister's recipe that she developed after working in a Mexican restaurant. It is super easy and perfect for summer.
