It’s to hot to want to cook anything, so we were scouring cook books trying to find something that is in your basket that wont require much cooking or effort. We came up with mini stuffed bells

what you will need:

• mini bells (tops cut off and insides scooped out
• cream cheese
• hard cheese (brie, blue cheese, fresh Parmesan, etc)
• herb of your choice finely chopped ( I would recommend something along the lines of chives or thyme or rosemary)

mix together cream cheese, finely grated hard cheese, and herb(s) into a small mixing bowl to the ratio that suits you.

fill an icing bag or a Ziploc (with a small corner cut off) with the cream cheese mixture and fill the peppers almost to the top. Run a skewer through the sides of all the peppers so they will sit up right, and place on the BBQ. Roast until desired done-ness. don’t let them burn. throw on some pounded chicken with your favorite seasoning and ta-da you have dinner ready with not much effort.

Or if you would rather, cut up peaches toss them on the grill with  some red onion ring/slices then put everything on a green salad including the peppers, with some walnuts.

you’re welcome, two dinners on one post.

BASKETS ARE READY!

Hello my peeps! What a hot day it has been so far. Got up to start picking at 7 and thought I had accidentally slept in till noon because it was so hot and humid out (not really but it makes a good story). So I have a request from you, with it being so hot out I want to try my hand at making Popsicle but with fruit or other things that aren’t 100% sugar and was wondering if you had or knew of any recipes that are totally amazing……… and a very picky toddler will love. Your feed back would be great and much appreciated.

We have a very different basket for you this week, of course there is the summer staples like squash, tomatoes, bell pepper and stuffing peppers, beans,and cucumbers. but we also have lots of new things like spaghetti squash, grapes, apples, potatoes, and an organic lemon! I’m pretty sure I forgot to list something  so we will call it a surprise something in the basket too.

Also there is extra stuff that you can either grab one big thing, like a giant zucchini for bread or a bag of little thing like okra or eggplant. there are other options as well.
