The Best Marinated Zucchini

The Best Marinated Zucchini

July 18, 2020 Leave a Comment

This recipe caught my eye in the latest issue of Cook's Country (my favorite cooking magazine). It's peak season for zucchini right now, but other than grilling it, I'm never quite sure what to do with it. Roasted zucchini is delicious, but who wants to crank up the oven in mid-July?

Raw Pad Thai with Spicy Almond Sauce

Raw Pad Thai with Spicy Almond Sauce

OMG you guys, this sauce. I ate so much of it off the spoon as I was prepping to photograph this dish that I was worried for a second that there wouldn't be enough left. Seriously, it is SO GOOD. Creamy almond butter, tart lime juice, fresh ginger and garlic, and tons of sriracha. When did ...

I scoffed. I made fun. I dug in my heels. And then two weeks ago I caved and bought a spiralizer. I know I'm late to the game. The Internet has been making zucchini noodles for ages now. But honestly, it's taken me this long to get on board with the whole concept. For one, I'm not a huge pasta ...

I am way, way too excited about this post. I've been dying to share this recipe with you for months now, but I figured I should wait until zucchini was in season. Even though, to be completely honest, I made it a few times over the winter with supermarket squash  and tomatoes flown in from who ...
