Using My Garden Produce

I had some beautiful red peppers from my garden this year. Adding them to my zucchini was not only yummy, but pretty, too!

  • Saute sliced onion and sliced red pepper in olive oil. 
  • Add sliced zucchini and cook until done.  
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste. 
The next day I was looking for something for lunch, had a bit of the zucchini left, some roast beef that needed used, and some chard from the garden...


With the leftovers:
  • Cook sliced chard (7 leaves or so) in olive oil until done.  Season with salt and pepper. 
  • Slice roast beef and add to skillet; heat through. 
  • Add zucchini mixture and cook until heated, stirring frequently. 
  • Sprinkle with feta cheese.
Yum! 

I tried making the zucchini, chard and roast beef for dinner one night by slicing uncooked beef and cooking that in olive oil with the onion and pepper then adding the zucchini and chard - but I didn't like it as well.  The peppers and onions didn't cook the same way or something.

I've still got chard in the garden, but everything else is finished, so I'll have to wait until next summer to make this again.  Posting this now so I don't forget!
