Zucchini Boats with Mozzarella and Tomatoes [Recipe]

vegetables

My neighbor Tim down the street has an amazing garden! I love that he tends it and I get to reap some of the rewards! They cannot possibly eat all the zucchini they harvest so he’s always calling asking if I would take some off his hands… and I have NEVER said no!

Last night we ate late and I decided to clean out the fridge at the same time… that means I used up lots of little leftovers… and I made my Zucchini Boats with Mozzarella and Tomatoes. They are simple to make and you can use all sorts of stuff you find in the fridge to stuff it! Heck you don’t even HAVE to use Mozzarella or Tomatoes! You can substitute Yellow Summer Squash for the zucchini! It’s a very forgiving and versatile recipe so have fun with it!

Watermelon Salsa Recipe

appetizers

Today is the first day of summer and we ushered it in with a steamy 97° here in Virginia. In the heat of summer what is better than a delicious, light and refreshing watermelon salsa? I know that all the salsas were a huge hit at our Memorial Day party and they ran the gamut from traditional tomato based to apple and corn. I found myself telling everyone about watermelon salsa so I thought I better dig out my recipe and get ready for the 4th of July picnic!
