Zucchini and Corn

My Medill buddy Sara cooked this tasty, hearty veggie dish that her mom made back in the day.
I’m terrible with transcribing Spanish, but I do know it translates into Zucchini and Corn.

Cooking with Sara! from Kris Vera-Phillips on Vimeo.

I made the white rice with our handy rice cooker.

To recap, Sara used the following ingredients:

  • 2 cans of tomato sauce
  • one cube of chicken bullion, microwaved with water
  • 2 zucchinis, chopped up
  • chopped up onion (about 1/2)
  • 1 can of corn (or you can boil your own)
  • A handful of oregano
  • A little bit of whole milk
  • 2 slices of American cheese

The tomato sauce tied the fresh veggie flavors together. Sara’s right, the whole milk and the cheese added a lovely creamy texture to the mixture. I loved how it all tasted over white rice.

Good times!

A Year of Eating and Drinking

Wow.
I have completed my Project 365 Challenge: Daily pictures of food and drinks. This flash album shows all the pictures from May 24, 2007, to May 24, 2008. Granted, I missed a few days. However, I think it shows a complete picture of eating out, dining in and enjoying food. My hubby and I had tasty meals in Kansas, California and states in between. We’ve tried yummy treats from around the world. And we had a blast doing so.

I’m still taking pictures of food. I think I’m taking a break from daily photo challenges. It’s quite intense. I’ll probably keep this blog up to chronicle more adventures in eating and drinking.

Thanks for following along 🙂
