Thoughts On Cooking For My Family

I believe that food is more than just survival, it’s about comfort, love, and bringing people together.

August 17 2025 Zucchini Casserole, Lemon Chia Seed Pudding

Very simple meal this evening.  I made a casserole with grated zucchini and chopped onion, two eggs, bread crumbs.  For seasoning I used fresh dill.  It was very simple.  It’s like one of those recipes you see on internet where the guy throws a few things into a baking dish, mix it, cheese it, and bake it.  I love those recipes.  I think for him it’s one meal but for me I can get 2 dinners and a lunch from a recipe like this.  Try it!

I have begun experimenting with making chia seed pudding.  This time I used zest and juice of a lemon, 4 tablespoons of chia seeds, a cup of almond milk and a tablespoon or so of honey.  Let it gel in the fridge overnight.  I liked it.  I will do more different kinds to see which one I like best.
