This wasn’t an exact recipe I followed, but more of a guide. I had soba noodles I needed to use up and didn’t have the ingredients for all the cool recipes I found. However, you can never go wrong with a simple stir-fry with a bunch of veggies. I even used my mandolin slicer to cut the matchstick cut carrots. That tool is sweet!
RECIPES:
Sauteed tilapia tacos with grilled peppers and onions, creamed cucumbers, and a garden salad. This was just okay. It was quick and easy, but it didn’t pack the flavor punch I was expecting. The cucumbers were awesome because they were from my mom’s garden, had garden dill, and I used my mandolin slicer for the first time too. It’s an easy summer side dish.
RECIPES:
Sauteed Tilapia Tacos with Grilled Peppers and Onions
Creamed Cucumbers
Sliced cucumbers, enough sour cream to coat them, a little salt and pepper, and a little fresh dill. Mix and let set in the fridge for a bit.
Shrimp, broccoli and sun-dried tomato pasta. This is a recent repeat, but I made it following the recipe this time. Soo good. I love this. It’s definitely in the top five for the year so far.
RECIPE:
Herbed shrimp and white bean salad, and corn bread muffins. It’s amazing this turned out even halfway good. I didn’t read the recipe other than glance over the ingredients. I forgot some key ingredients and did things in the wrong order. But it was still really really good. I bet it’s even better if you actually read the directions. The corn bread muffins seem random. I was really wanting something junkfood-ish earlier today, and that was the best we had on-hand. Smother them in enough butter and it’ll do the job.
RECIPES:
Halibut with leeks, zucchini and summer squash, and a garden salad. I should have read this recipe all the way through. For one, I bought tilapia instead of halibut. Two, I didn’t have tarragon vinegar, and three, I didn’t realize it called for raisins. I did have leeks though. And luckily I did have raisins on had. This was a good fish recipe. I wasn’t expecting much and I was pleasantly surprised.
