Zucchini Bake

We finally cooked one of the two big zucchinis from the garden. The other was gifted and awesomely prepared by Veronica last Wedneday night.

For mine, here's what I did.

I selected a rotisserie chicken and shredded the breast meat. Then I purchased some pesto made at the mustard seed market, a bag of sun dried tomatoes, portabella mushrooms, garlic, and feta cheese. Everything was mixed together and left to mingle in the fridge for about 2 hours.

The zucchini was then sliced down the middle and scooped completely clean until each side was a hollow boat. The insides were added to the previously combined deliciousness.

The zucchini boats were stuffed, Parmesan cheese was generously sprinkled over the tops and the boats were baked in the oven.

The end result - Taste-tastic.

The photo isn't the best because I was too lazy to pull out the Canon, but it does give you the picture.



Bon Apetit.

Planning The Garden Layout.

I had mentioned last year that there were a couple of things I was going to change in my planting design this year. I decided that I wanted to sketch things out so that my time spent planting was a little more organized. Here is what I'm thinking about doing!  If you are an experienced gardener and see any errors in my plans....please let me know!  All feedback  is welcomed! I've got my vine plants like zucchini and cucumber placed against the outside wire fence so that they can climb....and I'm not going to overcrowd this year. I did some minor rotating of the plants to make sure that there is a difference in the nutrients being leached from the soil (though I will admit that I didn't do enough research on this yet). There will definitely be trial and error on this, but I like that! I'm growing Jalapeno's and Carrots, which I didn't do last year....and then I took eggplant off the garden plot.  I might try it in containers instead.  They didn

Onion Sets

Being that I'm completely new to the back yard gardening box I'm completely fascinated by certain foods and their planting rituals. This week my eyes are SET on the onion. After eating three green onions freshly picked and cleaned from a home garden last weekend my brain has been consumed. When i started my seedlings I did plant onion seeds and I do have about 25 sprouts...but to take my onion adventure even further i decided to take a recommendation and buy onion sets. Since I had never heard of an onion set I began a little research and have learned a lot in just two days. You have three options for planting onions... 1. seeds 2. sets 3. transplants - I need to read more on this one. I think they are just sets that have matured and began to bulb. I've got two of them in action - seeds and sets. My seeds that were planted are about an inch and a half high. Some of them have been transplanted into my garden and I'm hoping they become full sized onions. About 20 or so

Lettuce Begin Again!

A little time. A little Sunshine. A couple of cooler weather crops. And we have begun. Today I spent a good portion of my afternoon out in the garden space, readying it for the planting season. I turned the soil with the hoe.  I pulled out the little patches of grass that seeded themselves in over the course of the winter. And then I decided it was time to put my lettuce and spinach seeds in the ground.  (I haven't purchased my kale yet or that would be seeded in as well.) I'm going to head out later to get what I need to start my seedlings for the rest of the garden.  I'm a little later than I was last year, but I did have a couple of mishaps in round one that I'm going to avoid in round two!!  I love growing season!
