Newest Staples

11/22/08


I've been promising recipes for some time so I decided to deliver!  These are two recipes that I had decided to try and they have become staples at our house.  

The first is zucchini ravioli.  It's so delicious and incredibly easy!  It's perfect for busy week nights.  We seriously eat it once a week.

Ingredients:
1 zucchini
1 package refrigerated ravioli 
fresh grated Parmesan

Cut the zucchini in half length wise and then cut thin slices.  (They should look like half moons)  Saute zucchini in butter and season with garlic salt and lemon pepper.  Cook the ravioli as package directs.  Drain pasta and toss with the zucchini.  Grate Parmesan over the top and toss again.   Delicious!

On our honeymoon we ate chocolate croissants at a wonderful french bakery most mornings for breakfast.  If you are ever in Santa Fe the bakery is worth a visit.  Although these are NOT comparable they are a yummy treat.

Chocolate "Croissants"
1 package pillsbury crescent rolls
a handful of chocolate chips

Roll out and separate rolls.  Put 10-12 chocolate chips on the bottom third of the roll.  Roll up and bake at 350 until golden brown.

With the busy holiday season fast approaching , easy recipes are even more useful!  Enjoy!
