Last night, Brady’s brother Tyler and sister Janelle came over for dinner. It was low-key and very tasty! Dinner didn’t take long to prepare but involved lots of cutting – potatoes, zucchini, tomatoes, mozzarella, and basil.
Baked Potato Fries
- 4 semi-baked potatoes
- spray butter
- garlic wine seasoning
- salt and pepper
Cook potatoes in the microwave for about 5-8 min so they are softer but not baked completely. Cut into 1/2 inch slices. Spray the potatoes with spray butter and add garlic wine seasoning. Bake at 400* for about 20min. or until crunchy on the outside and soft in the middle.
Baked Zucchini Fries
(Similar to Cooking Light and Happy Herbivore’s recipe, but with less exact measurements.:))
- 2 zucchinis cut into 1/2 in. strips
- nutritional yeast ( 1/2c. ish)
- Italian bread crumbs (1/2c.ish)
- Parmesan cheese (1/4c. ish
- 1/2 c. milk
- salt and pepper
Cut up zucchini. Dip zuc. piece into milk then into mixture made of yeast, parm and breacrumbs. Bake at 400 for about 20 min. or until crispy and brown on the outside. These are AMAZING!!!
Tom & Moz. Salad (Tomato-Mozzarella that is:))
- cut up tomatoes
- fresh mozzarella pieces in similar size to the tomato
- fresh basil, chopped
- drizzle of EVOO and balsamic vinegar
Tyler’s Decadent Burgers
- Lean ground sirloin
- Worcester sauce
- garlic seasoning
- A-1
Mix meat and all seasonings and grill!
We walked to get ice cream after dinner (Brady still gets bubble gum because it has big chunks of real bubble gum in it). After ice cream a few friends came over to watch the Olympics, play Wii and drink Sangria!
* Tonight Brady’s parents are coming over for dinner! Any good cookout recipes?!
