Remember how I mentioned I got a second dinner out of the pork I cooked for Slow Cooker Salsa Verde Pork Tostadas that included brown rice and vegetables? Well, these Sautéed Cilantro Lime Vegetables are the veggies that landed onto that dinner plate.

This vegetable medley of zucchini, yellow squash and red onion is the perfect side dish for so many meals from simple oven baked black bean and cheese quesadillas to Mexican baked pasta (both go-to dinners in my house). One of my favorite ways to cook veggies is by sautéing them over medium high heat with a tiny bit of oil and finishing them off with a squeeze of lemon or lime and fresh herbs.

Super quick and easy – not to mention, healthy and delicious. This is how to get your family to eat their vegetables!

I can’t help but make Summer Squash Fritters like this more than a few times every summer when zucchini and squash are just about everywhere you look. I wish I could say I grew the veggies for these myself, but my garden just doesn’t handle summer squash very well, and sadly, I’ve pretty much given up on trying.

However, I am lucky to have a farmer’s market style store very close to my house who always has the freshest and prettiest farm veggies, and every time I visit I can’t help but come home with a bags full of summer veggie goodness, and that always includes zucchinis.

Is it possible to fall in love with food? I feel like I’ve asked this question a few times before.

I fell in love with this pizza. Totally took me by surprise, though not sure why since it’s pretty straight forward why – grilled vegetables, pizza crust, cheese and lemon pepper. Does it get much better?

I can most definitely eat like this every day.
