Zucchini Pancakes

Introducing healthy foods at an early age is the secret to instilling good eating habits in our kids. Nothing makes that task easier or more tasty than a warm homemade pancake filled with delicious vegetables smothered with aromas and flavors such as vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon or orange juice. Maia, Linda’s granddaughter, loves to work with her to whip up these tasty treats for breakfast or an afternoon snack. Her preference is to have them in shapes of hearts and bears using pancake molds Linda bought at a local kitchen store. Zucchini is Maia’s favorite but carrot and lemon are a close second choice. After you are familiar with the recipe, you can change it up however you and your little ones prefer.

Roasted Squash and Potatoes

Our Roasted Potato and Squash is a tasty, healthy, and simple to prepare side dish that compliments any meat and fish entrée. It can be made with seasonal squash such as zucchini and crook neck or summer squash that are readily available at your local grocery store or farmer's market. Roasting the potatoes before adding the squash gives a great blend of textures to this carbo-vegetable mix.
