So on Sunday I had some time to be creative and had some yellow squash and zucchini to use up before I leave on holiday. Began by chopping up the veggies into 3/4" cubes and sauteed them in butter and olive oil for just long enough to get them coated. Put the mixture on a cookie sheet and under the broiler. Now mind you, you have to keep an eye on them as it is just a moment between looking fabulous and burnt! Thus I now have my "chips" for nachos.
Once out of the oven, I put some cooked mild sausage on top followed by cheese that was allowed to melt along with salsa and guacamole. Did not have sour cream, but a good addition if you feel like it. Then it was time to eat. Totally delicious (and totally forgot to get a photo at this point). The low carbs made it a most enjoyable experience. Trying to be fun and creative in using veggies and meat to make meals that I find most enjoyable.
Last night I used up the tomatoes and mozzarella in a fun salad that took a festive twist with the addition of bacon. Sometimes it is out of using up stuff in the frig that you can be most creative.
