2. Macaroni and cheese, sautéed Swiss chard and breaded zucchini

and sliced tomatoes.

4. How do you make your breaded zucchini?

I ask DH to bring home a cucumber yesterday and he came home with a zucchini.

I'm not a big fan of the zucchini and am unsure what I might do with it.

6. Simple recipe

Slice zucchini into 1/4 " rounds. Dredge in a flour-salt-pepper mix. Dip into an egg wash and then into cracker meal, or bread crumbs. Heat some cooking oil and fry the zucchini on both sides til golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Serve hot.

7. Thanks! I may give that a try.

13. my 2 cents

Asked for a cuke, got a zuke!

May I vouch for LTH's recipe? I made them a couple nights ago. The only diff in my recipe is that I sprinkled in parmesan and fresh chopped herbs in the breading mix. I use panko.

They are so delicious. You will be a real fan once you've made these zucchini rounds!

Also, my spouse likes to mix in thin onion slices while they are frying in the pan.

Another thought, but you prob'ly won't be able to do it, being on a boat 'n all: they are good with horseradish/sour cream/mayo sauce.

Now I wish I had another couple zukes.

3. Leftover stroganof.

5. Going back to plan from yesterday - sausage and beans.

And I need to do something with this zucchini.

10. If you're having a side salad, slcied real thin works well. Or cut thicker & brown with the sausages

It needs some salt either way, so dressing or sausage juice would work.

Note to your DH -

Cuke


Zucchini


The tell is the big stem on the zucchini. Or the sign in the vegetable aisle.

11. We are now having steak, which a friend is bringing over.

So I am going to roast some potatoes and put some raw zucchini it.

I showed DH your post and he still tagged them wrong.

Then he just shrugged.

22. Tienen una gran comida.

[cbayer]

23. Si, senor! Es muy bueno.

[greatauntoftriplets]

17. LOL!

8. Had a big lunch today (eggs Benedict).

I plan to have something light -- a chicken Caesar wrap sandwich. Also, some fresh pineapple and a couple of baby bananas.

[cbayer]

12. I love eggs benedict! But I don't like eggs, so I always ask for them on the side.

Ok, what I really like is english muffins, good ham and bernaise sauce.

:laughing?

[greatauntoftriplets]

14. Couldn't you just ask them to hold the eggs?

[cbayer]

16. I give them to someone else. It works out great!

[greatauntoftriplets]

18. Yes. That definitely works!

[rdharma]

9. It's "Talk Like a Pirate Day"...... SO........

[cbayer]

15. Arghh, matey!

We were just struck (well, tapped) by another boat and I was ready to curse like a pirate.

[LaydeeBug]

20. Cheeseburgers. nt

[pinto]

21. Checked the larder. Baked potato with sauteed kale and bacon. Strawberries.

Still have a bit of watermelon but it looks like hummingbird roof-top treat.
