Roasted Squash & Zucchini with Parmesan


This recipe is also a Pinterest one! My husband and I love squash and zucchini so I decided to try it.

Chopped sweet/yellow onion
Minced Garlic
4 tbsp olive oil (divided)
Zucchini
Squash
Grated Parmesan Cheese
Salt
Pepper

Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit
Saute onion, garlic, and 2 tbsp olive oil.
Once cooked, place in the bottom of a glass 9x9 casserole dish.
Slice zucchini and squash (I used my food processor so they were definitely thinner than the perfect looking ones on Pinterest)
Place in dish over onions mixture
Add the other 2 tbsp of olive oil and stir.
Sprinkle sparingly with salt and pepper.
Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 30 minutes.
Remove from oven and add grated cheese to the top.
Return to oven and bake for 15 more minutes or until the cheese is golden brown.
Serve warm!



Sauteing Onions and Garlic

After they are cooked, place in pan. I could have used more but I used what I had left at the time!

Chop veggies by hand or in processor!

Place in pan and bake for thirty minutes.

After 30 minutes, stir if needed and add grated cheese to top and then return the dish to the oven for 15 more minutes.

Serve Warm!


We LOVED this dish and definitely will be making it again. It was easy and very tasty!

Cleaning The Stove Hood Vent

I was on Pinterest earlier and came across a blog on how to clean your stove hood vent. I immediately thought, what vent? Well, I knew that my hood was dirty and needed cleaning, little did I realize how disgusting my vents were. The fix was easy: a large boiling pot of water, and 1/2 cup of baking soda. Soak the vents, rinse, and dry. This entire process for two vents took me less than 10 minutes and they look 100 times better than before! See for yourself!

I have two vents so this is one of them. It was DIRTY and as soon as I submerged it in the boiling water/baking soda mix, it fizzled and the water turned NASTY colors.


This is after I flipped it over. The difference was AMAZING after just a minute!


You can see the difference!

I was very impressed with how easy and quick this was!

Hobo Supper

This is a meal I love called HOBO supper! It basically lines a pan with cabbage and then pats out two hamburger steaks, top that with onions and surround the rest with veggies and add salt and pepper and then cover with tinfoil and bake at 350 for 45 minutes! Yummo!
