I've been slacking


OK, So I have been slacking on my food blog. We moved a couple of months ago and are in between houses right now. We are staying with my parents and it is hard to get motivated to cook when your mom is there cooking and making such yummy meals. I will post pictures and recepies of the meals my mom has made for us while we have been at their house.

Zucchini or Pea Soup with finger bread

I love soups in the fall. This is one that my mom always made for our family when I was a child. It is so yummy. We made finger bread (scones) to go along with it. It made for a wonderful lunch today. Way beyond our usual peanut butter and honey sandwiches. This recipe is huge and it makes a lot but it is nice to have extras. You can half it if you need to.

Zucchini Bisque

Cook then blend
6 lbs - Zucchini or Peas
1/4 lbs. - butter
2 cups - onion
3/4 cup - Chicken broth
3 1/2 quarts - water

Add to zucchini mixture when back in the pot after blending
3 cups - half n half
1/2 t. - pepper
1/2 t. - nutmeg
1/2 t. - salt
pinch - Cayenne

Sprinkle some shredded cheese on top and eat.

Serves 30
(Zucchini, butter, onions, chicken broth and water cook till zucchini is soft and then blend in a blender)


(Add seasoning and then serve!! MMMM MMMM Good!)

Finger Bread (Scones)

Finger bread is something that my grandmothers for generations back would make there families. They would make bread for their family each week and with the extra dough they would make finger bread as a treat. This is an awesome legacy to pass on to my children.

Use your favorite bread recipe (Here is mine).
Let dough rise.
Put vegetable oil in a pan and heat on medium
Flatten the bread out with your fingers and place in the hot oil. Let it cook until it is golden
brown and turn using a fork. Place on a plate and paper towel.
We like to put butter, honey, and or jam on them.
