RE: Spicing Things Up in the Kitchen: Italian Spice Mix

in #recipe7 years ago

Beautiful pictures and post layout! I definitely want to try this recipe and try it with grilled veggies like you suggested.

Matt and I have this joke that people love to grow zucchini, but by the end of the season end up with so much that they can't even give it away.

So TRUE! Growing up, we had zucchini in our garden and no matter how few were planted, there was always too much zucchini. And sometimes they’d stay hidden until they were enormous!! We couldn’t even give those away...

Thank you! I hope you do try the spices with grilled veggies, it's really tasty. The snow has finally melted where we are and we're starting to see the trees begin to sprout their leaves. There is no better way to welcome summer than grilling!

Oh, the hidden zucchini's! Those giants are always so seedy too. One year, Matt's mom was utilizing every crevice of her suburban property for her garden and she planted her zucchini along her alley fence line. She came home to find an envelope from a by-law officer citing her for noxious weeds. 🤣 While she managed to have the ticket revoked, that is just a great illustration of how wild those plants can grow. Ha ha! -Aimee

Lol, “noxious weeds” - as a kid that’s what I would’ve thought too! For some reason we always had it plain and mushy 😬

Did she bring any of the zucchini to the station as gifts? 😂 I would’ve been tempted to give some to the officer 😉

I do not think the officer got any zucchini, but that would have been hilarious! - Aimee
