For the 4th of July this year I wanted to make a red, white and blue dish, and I came up with this Beet and Blueberry Salad with Blueberry Vinaigrette.

Beet and blueberry salad.

 

I got a huge bunch of beets in my CSA share this week, so I figured it made sense to roast them and combine them with blueberries.  So I had red and blue covered, but wasn’t sure what to use for the white. I also received a bunch of salad turnips, and they turned out to be perfect for the salad, both for adding the white color and for taste.

Delicious Zucchini Recipes

This time of year it seems like everyone has plenty of zucchini! Zucchini plants seem to produce faster than most people can eat it. So to help I put together a collection of zucchini recipes from blogs around the internet, with many different ideas for what you can make with it.

Zucchini Recipes - Delicious and creative zucchini recipes for using up all the extra zucchini from your garden

There are many creative options beyond just sauteeing it in olive oil.  You can make it into chips for a snack, serve it in a frittata for breakfast or turn it into cupcakes or cake for dessert.  I even found a recipe for zucchini popsicles, which I have to try! 

Chocolate Chip Zucchini Bread

I have so much zucchini this year it is ridiculous! My husband and I love zucchini, but there is only so much that we can eat in a week.  My mom is visiting this week, so she made her traditional Chocolate Chip Zucchini Bread recipe for us, and it is a delicious way to use up some of our abundance of zucchini.

The recipe uses two zucchini, shredded in the food processor, to make the bread moist and tender. This is the same recipe that my grandma made and taught to my mom, with a few small differences.  My grandma always made Zucchini Bread with Raisins, but my mom is not a big fan of raisins. So she made a simple subsitution, and now it is Chocolate Chip Zucchini Bread instead.  And while I like raisins, chocolate chips are better!
