I got some fresh figs from family recently. They keep their figs in egg cartons to keep them from getting squished. I used gluten-free Bisquick and the biscuit recipe on the box to make fig biscuits. I scraped the insides of a dozen figs and mixed in a few tablespoons of brown sugar and then […]
Watermelon Cucumber Salad is one of my favorite summer salads. It is healthy and doesn’t require any dressing. Ingredients Watermelon Cucumber Feta cheese Last year, I used cucumber from my garden. I diced watermelon first and add it to the bowl. Then, I chopped up lemon cucumber and added it. Then, I crumbled feta cheese […]
Our zucchini plants have been producing a lot. I gave away some zucchinis, but I still had many left. My 97-year-old neighbor recently taught me how to make zucchini fritters so I can use my zucchini. I hope you enjoy this zucchini fritter recipe. This is roughly the recipe she taught me. She and I […]
I love juicing! My all-time favorite juicer, which has been an amazing worker for over ten years, is my Breville Juice Fountain. Breville Juicers are amazing. They really get all the liquid out of the vegetables and fruits. I like a little foam on top of my juice, but if you hate foam, the juicer […]
Lovage is basically a French celery. It’s four times as flavorful as the traditional celery I’m used to in an American grocery store. So, you don’t need a lot of it. I cut the leaves off so I only have the stalks left. I feel like Morticia Addams when I do this. Oh, and remember […]
I love to dry herbs. This is especially useful when you can’t eat at the speed your plants are producing. I love my Cosori Food Dehydrator. It has been great because it is square-shaped (the round dehydrators waste corners of counter space) and has the volume for drying a lot of herbs at once. You […]
I enjoy dehydrating fruits and vegetables that aren’t typically sold dehydrated. While it’s easy to get dried apricots, for example, it’s difficult to find dried cantaloupe. Since our melons have started producing, I decided to try dehydrating some of the fruit. I used my own melons from the garden to make the dehydrated fruit. I […]
We are growing so much basil in the garden lately, and it grows so quickly, that we need to find creative uses for it. This ice cream is made with a Cuisinart Ice Cream maker (mine is the white model), which makes life so much easier for me than an old, wooden, hand-crank ice cream […]
