What I make when zucchini takes over the garden
|
Hi Friends Reader If you've been around Garden in the Kitchen for a while, you may remember this recipe. My Chicken Zucchini Skillet first appeared on the blog back in 2017, and every summer since then I've found myself making it again when the zucchini starts taking over the garden. Back then, the recipe was all about being "low carb." Today, my cooking looks a little different. These days, I'm much more focused on simple meals made with seasonal ingredients, letting fresh produce shine, and creating dinners that are nourishing without being complicated. So I decided it was time to give this longtime favorite a complete refresh.

And since zucchini season is officially here, I thought I'd share a few more reader favorites: Double Chocolate Zucchini Muffins Double Chocolate Zucchini Bread If your garden is anything like mine, zucchini season starts slowly and then suddenly you're wondering how one plant could possibly produce so much. Thankfully, there are worse problems to have. I'd love to know, what's your favorite way to use zucchini this time of year?

Hi Friends Reader One of my favorite things about summer cooking is that dinner doesn't have to be complicated (haven't I said this before?!) When the weather is beautiful, the last thing I want is to spend hours in the kitchen or deal with a sink full of dishes. That's exactly why foil packet dinners have become one of my favorite ways to cook this time of year. They're simple to prepare, practically cook themselves, and let fresh seasonal ingredients shine.
