As the temps cool off from their summer peaks, I start craving warmer, heartier fare. At the same time, I want to keep cooking with fresh garden zucchini while it’s abundant (I’m not ready for all things pumpkin…

I’d take these homemade blueberry muffins over ones from a bakery any day. They’re moist and tender in the middle and have a crisp cinnamon-sugar streusel on top. But best of all, they’re loaded with juicy blueberries. You get a hit of sweet-tart berry flavor in every bite. We’ve been lucky enough to go blueberry picking a few times this summer, and I’ve made this easy blueberry muffin recipe after every trip. The muffins disappear quickly around here—paired with a cup of coffee, they’re one of my favorite breakfast treats. Our kiddo loves them too (without the coffee, of course). I’m hoping to…

summer / vegetarian

I started making this stuffed zucchini boats recipe a few years back. It’s been a staple in our summer dinner rotation ever since! I love this recipe for several reasons. First, it’s a fantastic way to make the most of a summer stockpile of zucchini. I don’t let any of the squash go to waste here. Instead of tossing the scooped zucchini flesh, I mix it into the zesty filling. Second, it’s full of fresh summer flavor. These zucchini boats feature seasonal veggies like cherry tomatoes and fresh herbs in addition to the zucchini. Lemon zest brightens up the filling…
