Summer Squash Skewers


I posted this onto Simple City Life last week..thought I would share it here too! 
I love summer time grilling;) 

Summer Squash Skewers 
3 small squash
1 small zucchini
1 green pepper
2 TB olive or grapeseed oil ( I used Grape Seed Oil with Natural Butter Flavor from Wildtree)
1 TSP of chopped chives
1 TSP of chopped dill
1 TSP of garlic seasoning ( I used Garlic Galore Seasoning Blend from Wildtree)
Salt and Pepper to season


Cut up the squash and  green peppers and tossed them with oil, lime juice garlic seasoning and salt and pepper. Threw in chives and dill and let them sit for about 30 min to an hour.





Then skew the squash  and put them on the grill for about 15 minutes.

Goat cheese and strawberry spread


So it's Monday and our fridge is bare. I am patiently waiting for my peapod order to arrive. 
I have to be honest, I secretly love when my fridge and cupboards are deplete of anything nutritious, I find I do my best creative cooking in these moments. 
For lunch  today I used the last strip of bacon, a little bit of pepper jack cheese and slices of apple and combined with bread for a decadent grilled cheese sandwich;)

As I stared in my fridge I noticed the half eaten package of goat cheese and a few strawberries that were starting to shrivel, (they were just staring at me with such sadness begging to be put out of their misery) and a full brick of cream cheese and my mind starting turning. Here is the recipe I just whipped together and I have to say it was yummy! 



1/2 a loaf of goat cheese
1/2 brick of cream cheese
4 or 5 strawberries-chopped small

Mix 2 cheeses together till smooth and add the strawberries and stir till mixed well.
Place a slice of apple over a cracker and dollop a small amount of the mixture on top.
Drizzle lightly with honey(I didn't have any honey but I can imagine it would be tasty)
