Zucchini Casserole

A new recipe!  I'm always looking for new food ideas, so I was excited when my sister in law served this casserole at Thanksgiving.  As with any casserole, I tweaked the amounts of certain ingredients to my taste.

Zucchini Casserole

1 Cup Bisquick
3 eggs
1/3 Cup canola or veggie oil
3 Cups grated zucchini
1/3 Cup chopped red bell pepper
1 medium onion
1 Cup whole kernel corn
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1 tsp oregano
3/4 Cup parmesan cheese
Sprinkle of garlic powder
1/4 Cup parmesan cheese for topping (optional)

Directions:
Heat oven to 350 degrees.  Whisk Bisquick, eggs and oil.  Stir in grated zucchini, onion, bell pepper, salt, pepper, oregano, corn and parmesan.  Add a sprinkle or garlic powder and additional parmesan to top of dish.  Bake 30 minutes uncovered.  Cover and bake an additional 30 minutes.  Enjoy!

Thankful even when it's not Thanksgiving week!

As I checked out at the grocery store last night, I thanked God for the unusually low grocery bill.  Then while loading them in the car, I thanked Him again, can't remember for what (is that bad??) and yet again again as I was driving home and the rain started, thankful that it started after I got the groceries in the car!  Thankful for the husband who helps get the groceries out of the car at home and the garage we park in to keep the rain off.  That's a lot all in about 20 minutes!  Sometimes life is hard, sometimes I'm cranky, sometimes money is tight, but I am always thankful to God for providing everything we have and I know that even in the worst of times, we are truly and extremely blessed.

A lazy sunday afternoon...

As I sit here in our living room watching the Colts (my 2nd fav NFL team) so far losing to the Eagles in the 2nd quarter (really Peyton, the Eagles?), I will share the first of many foods to be shared here, a new found snack that a friend introduced to me a few weeks ago.  "Amy's" brand organic spinach rolls.  I call them the healthy version of Totino's pizza rolls, which we all know are addictive and great while watching football, but not exactly the best things for our bodies.  But Amy's Spinach Rolls are really yummy.  If you care to try them, they are found in the organic section at Kroger and are comparable in price to pizza rolls.
