Summer Garden Dinners!

There's no going back. Must forever and always, from this day forward have a garden! This was our first, and while the cucumbers, strawberries, & raspberries quickly died, much is thriving! This week was our first harvest: jalapenos and zucchini -and we are pretty proud of these babies we've raised up from seeds. Amazing! The kids love the picking, washing, cooking, and eating of them too! This has also sparked growing independence from cookbooks, using them for inspiration while mostly venturing out on our own with what we've got. It's been fun, always something new and different!

This weeks dinner -homemade whole wheat tortillas (made by Chad), grilled zucchini & roasted jalapenos topped w/ goat cheese (cheddar for the kids) & chipotle salsa


Chad and I really enjoy cooking together, and with the kids (sometimes!)...
CHEERS to eating pretty, healthy food!
