Well, luv, this thread is always a free-for-all on Saturdays...frankly, I don't know which sort of recipes to recommend.

Don't suppose you have any recipes that cure detached retinas, do you? (Having surgery next Wed...)

Having seen a number of your recipes, I'd say just "go with what you like", because other FReepers will doubtless like it/them, too. Maybe start with something easy and straightforward, I dunno.

Best to you, and looking forward!

Well, tonight I made a really simple Bruschetta snack; may be going out later (my beau is actually back in the STATE for a change; he works construction, so he travels all summer) but I wanted a little something in my tummy in case that all falls through...

One finely chopped, large, seeded tomato; place in a bowl.
One generous ‘glop’ of Italian Dressing; any kind, your choice; for me, the spicier the better!
Four shredded fresh basil leaves from the garden (I cut them up with a scissors; works slick!)
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Sliced French Baguette
Lite Cream Cheese

Slice the bread, smear with cream cheese, top with the tomato/salad dressing mix, top with shredded basil. Eat. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat. Heavenly! :)

You can use sliced, soft, fresh mozzarella cheese in lieu of the cream cheese, but I didn’t have any on hand...and with G*d as my witness, I shall NEVER let that happen AGAIN! :)

My garden will be bursting with summer squash in the next few weeks; ping me for some creative ways to use that. ‘Zucchini Brownies’ were always a hit with my boys when they were young. Fools. Mama knew how to stuff them with veggies when they weren’t looking, LOL!
