Okay, so better late than never with the promised pictures of my zucchini and the recipes to go with. I had to drive to Ventura yesterday for school to give a presentation that determine whether or not I could apply for my internships this fall.

I am quite proud of the size of these babies. They are incredible. This picture doesn’t do them justice. They expand the entire distance between the tip of my middle finger to my elbow.

So I am making stuffed zucchini for the family tonight. My mom will probably complain that there is no meat of real cheese, but I am sure everyone else will be quite happy.I am making three different versions of stuffed zucchini.

  2. [...] Next is a picture of cored out zucchini from my garden prior to stuffing it. And here is the zucchini after I stuffed it. This lovely recipe I call Zucchini Stuffed with Mashed Surprise.

They smoothered peanut butter all over a paper cup and then covered it in bird seed and that left me craving granola mixed with peanut butter. Now for my new recipe that I decided to call Biscuit Brunch. I have been craving a savory breakfast lately. Since becoming vegan I have only figured out how to make sweet breakfast foods and homefries, so this was my first attempt at something different and it was really good. Biscuit Brunch [...]
