joyfalzonezucchini crudo with summer herbs
No CommentsRead moreEvery year since my husband and I have had a garden, I harvest our very first summer squash and turn it into thinly sliced crudo. I think eating zucchini raw is the best way to enjoy it. The recipe I’m sharing today along with this one from the archives, are my favorites! Simply slice the zucchini with a mandolin or ceramic slicer and top with olive oil, fresh lemon juice and handfuls of fresh summer herbs! It is a light, refreshing appetizer or snack perfect for this humid weather.

joyfalzonea simple thai zucchini soup
No CommentsRead moreThere comes a time every September when I find myself in a food rut. Summer produce is still going strong but nights are cool and I crave change. Although autumn produce is starting to show up at the farmer’s market and in my garden, I’m not quite ready to let go of summer. Somehow I make the transition with warm summer soups and cold autumn smoothies. This thai spiced zucchini soup is perfect for cool summer nights. I like to spoon it over quinoa (a complete protein) to make it a filling meal. Making a large batch of quinoa in the beginning of the week allows for a quick add on to weeknight meals.

joyfalzoneraw zucchini noodles with balsamic marinated tomatoes
No CommentsRead moreYou’ve seen the spiralizer right? This is one of the coolest kitchen tools out there! You can literally turn anything into a noodle in seconds! Sweet potatoes, carrots, beets, zucchini, cucumbers, radishes, you name it. My favorite vegetable to put through the spiralizer is summer squash. Zucchini noodles (zoodles) are so refreshing and are wonderful eaten raw! If you don’t have a spiralizer or don’t have room to store one, no worries, I’ve seen vegetable noodles prepackaged in grocery stores now. The recipe I’m sharing today takes only about 15 minutes to prepare and even faster if you buy the pre-spiralized noodles.
