I started by cooking strips of chicken breast on the stove with EVOO. In a separate pan, I put minced garlic, EVOO, diced zucchini squash, tomatoes, fresh tomatillo salsa, and fresh salsa. Then I cooled and shredded chicken and added both this and stove ingredients to the glass pie dish with shredded cheese! Baked at 375 for about 20-30 and enjoyed. Healthy, fresh, and delicious!

Summer squash, local eggs
Set the oven to 350, bake sliced summer squash with EVOO and salt for about 20 minutes. For more protein and fat, fry a local egg and place over squash!
Sweet potato and chicken salad
Begin by baking sweet potatoes, I made a big batch of 8 potatoes and baked at 400 until they were very soft. Remove the skins (not necessary but a safe bet in a larger crowd) and combine with butter salt and milk in a mixing bowl. Taste as you go to find the perfect flavor! Can be served hot or prepared the night before and cold. The chicken salad is a combination of chicken (boiled or rotisserie), cilantro, mashed avocado, walnuts, halved grapes, S&P, olive oil
Banana Bread no gluten
Set the oven to 350
In one bowl mix 2 c GF flour, 1tsp baking soda, 1tsp baking powder and salt
In a separate bowl mix 1 stick butter with 1/2 c sugar. Next add 2 eggs, 2 Tbsp milk, 1/2 tsp vanilla and 4-5 ripe mashed bananas. Add chocolate chips and combine both bowls, only stirring until mixed.
Bake for 50-65 min!
Perfect Brussels
Add 2 tbsp of EVOO and two quartered cloves of garlic to a pan on medium heat. Chop brussel sprouts from stem, add to pan. Chop one apple and add along with salt and pepper. Cook about 10 minutes!
Simple eggs
This is one of the easiest ways to add flavor. I put a small scoop of coconut oil into a pan with a sliced yellow onion. Simmering until just brown will give it a caramelized flavor- turn the burner down and add some cage free whisked eggs. Be patient! Protein needs to cook slow, eggs should never be rushed.
I made my Cuban coffee by mixing unsweetened almond milk, maple syrup and instant coffee, then adding hot water
Basic colorful dinner
Chop peppers and onions and add EVOO salt and pepper and make a tinfoil basket for them, then grill for a few minutes on each side. Bake asparagus with olive oil in oven at 400 for 12 min (if you have meat to cook, this conserves grill space). Peel sweet corn and brush with melted butter salt and pepper, then grill on low for a few min- rotating often. I just learned this way of cooking corn, it caramelize sand is delicious.
Who can complain about fresh picked tomatoes, motz, basil salt and pepper? Also, put some cuke slices out with salt!
Summer squash and fruit bowl
This fruit bowl uses goat milk yogurt, peaches, banana, chia seeds and ground flax 
I picked this squash at the Lawrence Family farm in Newbergh, NY. Slice into thick pieces, heat the oven to 450, cover squash with EVOO S&P and bake until they just start to look brown
