Zucchini Pizza with Olive Vinaigrette

Zucchini Recipe
Serves 4
Cornmeal, for dusting                
1 pound pizza dough
2 small zucchini, quartered lengthwise and thinly sliced
2 ounces Provolone cheese, coarsely grated
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided, plus more for drizzling
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 teaspoons red-wine vinegar
1/2 cup pitted green olives (about 14), coarsely chopped
1/2 teaspoon anchovy paste
2 tablespoons chopped parsley

Preheat the oven to 475° F with a rack in the bottom position. Place a large rimmed baking sheet upside down on the rack to preheat, 8 minutes. On a piece of parchment paper dusted with cornmeal, using a lightly floured rolling pin, roll pizza dough into a large circle, about ¼-inch thick. Scatter it with zucchini and Provolone, drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Carefully remove the hot baking sheet from the oven and slide the parchment with the dough onto it. Bake until the dough is golden and crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Meanwhile, chop olives and transfer to a bowl with vinegar, anchovy paste, parsley and 2 tablespoons oil. Stir together to combine. Before serving pizza, drizzle with vinaigrette. Serve with side salad.

Zucchini Summer Skillet with Poached Eggs + Garlic Butter Baguettes

Zucchini Recipe

Ingredients:
1 small baguette, cut into slices        

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 garlic clove, minced
3 slices thick-cut bacon
1 shallot, diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 zucchini, cubed
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
2 ounces goat cheese
2-4 eggs, cooked to your liking

Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Place the baguette slices on a baking sheet. Bake until slightly golden, about 6 to 8 minutes, then remove from the oven. While the toast is baking, heat the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Whisk constantly as it bubbles until brown bits appear on the bottom, anywhere from 5 to 8 minutes. The minute the brown bits appear, turn off the heat and remove the skillet. Continue to whisk for 30 seconds then stir in the garlic.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the bacon. Cook until crispy and fat is rendered, then add in the shallot, garlic, zucchini, salt, pepper and paprika. Stir to coat the ingredients in the bacon fat and cook until the vegetables soften and become slightly golden, about 5 to 6 minutes. Stir occasionally. Add in half of the goat cheese and stir. Turn off heat.
While the zucchini is cooking, cook your eggs as desired. I poached mine using this method from smitten kitchen. It never fails me. Drizzle the garlic brown butter over the baguette slices and serve the zucchini and egg with extra goat cheese and a sprinkle of salt and pepper.

This cake is no bake and so easy to make! A crowd favorite
Author: Nikki
Recipe type: Dessert

INGREDIENTS

2 (3.4 oz) packages Vanilla Instant Pudding mix, dry

3½ cups whole milk

12 oz. cool whip

2 (14.4) oz packages graham crackers

- FROSTING -

3 Tbsp. butter

3 Tbsp. milk

3 Tbsp. cocoa

1 cup powdered sugar

INSTRUCTIONS

Blend milk and vanilla pudding packets for about 2 minutes. Fold in Cool Whip.

In a 9x13 pan, Layer graham crackers to cover entire bottom of pan. You may need to cut and shape the crackers to fit nicely.

Pour half of pudding/cool whip mixture on top and level.

Put another layer of graham crackers to cover entire surface. Cut and shape crackers accordingly.

Put the second half of pudding/cool whip mixture on top and level.

Put the final layer of graham crackers on top with bumpy side down. This will help the top look more smooth when you go to put the frosting on top. Once again, cut and shape crackers accordingly to avoid pits and cracks.

FOR THE FROSTING: Microwave butter and milk just enough so that they are melted together. You do not need to boil it. Add cocoa and powdered sugar and blend together. This will be a runnier frosting/glaze. Pour over top of graham crackers and smooth out nicely. (**I usually double the frosting recipe)

Refrigerate overnight and Dig in!
