Campfire Potatoes #SundayFunday

 We have been having a great summer with lots of outdoor cooking both at home and while traveling in the RV.  These easy, delicious potatoes are perfect whether made on a gas grill, over a campfire, or on a charcoal fire.  They are the perfect side for whatever else is being cooked up, and the leftovers make great fried potatoes in the morning.

The Sunday Funday Bloggers are cooking up spuds today.......

Grilled Zucchini Carbonara and the Weekly Menu #FarmersMarketWeek

 We celebrated National Sneak Zucchini Onto Your Neighbor's Porch Day earlier this week.  I was, in fact, gifted Zucchini from my neighbor.  If you aren't that lucky, pick some up next time you are at your local Farmers Market because you are going to want to make this delicious Grilled Zucchini Carbonara.....

Today is the final day of Farmers Market Week......

Sweet Corn Risotto with Shrimp #FarmersMarketWeek

 It is sweet corn season in Michigan.  Everywhere you look, there are tables of sweet corn.  Farmers' Markets, Roadside Stands, Front Yards, Local Gardens.  Our favorite place to get sweet corn is from a stand that opens each year called Potato Joe's.  He has, hands down, the best sweet corn around.

Welcome to Day 2 of Farmers Market Week.........

Ham and Cheese Stuffed Bread #BreadBakers

I served these rolls, stuffed with ham and provolone, with bowls of Norwegian Fish Chowder, known as Fiskesuppe, for dinner one night and the remainder for breakfast the following day.  They would also make a great lunchbox meal.

Summer Chicken Stew #FarmersMarketWeek

 I call this Summer Chicken Stew, not only because it is chock-full of the flavors of the season, but also because it is cooked using a slow cooker, perfect for hot summer days when you don't want to heat up the house.
