Here I sit, at the crack of dawn, planning tonight's supper. I have already been out to the garden and I have all sorts of fantastic things to plan around.
However, I also have a picky husband who insists upon meat at every meal so, just for him, I will marinate chicken breasts in barbecue sauce with a little extra Worcestershire sauce and some honey mixed in. Save some of the marinade so you can baste these while they grill. Watch them closely, the honey can make them burn quickly.
For the rest of the meal we will have creamed new potatoes, squash casserole, green beans and corn on the cob. Maybe tomorrow I will get my very first tomato for the year. It seems to be ripening quickly.
How to Freeze Squash
After I post this, I will work on the huge quantity of squash my garden is producing. I will begin by quartering ans slicing them into water with several chicken cubes. Add 1 chopped onion and 1 chopped bell pepper. Simmer till the squash is done. Drain and cool. Divide into freezer bags, 2 cups to each bag, lay flat, label and freeze. Now I will be ready for squash casserole in January.
When you are ready to make the casserole, thaw the squash, add in 1 egg, 1/2 cup mayonnaise, and 1 cup of shredded cheese. Stir well, top with breadcrumbs and bake at 350 for 30-35 minutes.
