Hey Grandpa, What's for Supper? Part 2

[thechickenchick]

Hubby tried his hand at his Dutch oven for the first time. It turned out really yummy. It had bacon, onion and potatoes.

Tonight is out first ball zucchini from our garden

on the BBQ and probably a pork chop

I got a Dutch Oven for my Birthday and you have got to try this bread that BettyR posted in the link below. It is wonderful, best bread I have had/made in years. We'll have to trade recipes here between our Dutch Ovens. I got a whole book on recipes specific to a 5 quart Dutch oven.

Enjoy - Sandee -make the bread you won't be sorry.

Thank you so much for that! I am going to ask him to try this. We are going camping with his folks this weekend so this would be a great time to give it a try

I would love to trade recipes, he did a little internet searching but so far thats it.

The Ball squash turned out really good. Charmed (a wonderful BYC friend of mine) shared this recipe with me. http://soupbelly.com/2009/08/06/8-ball-zucchini/ I didn't have tomato or bacon so substituted mushroom and garlic. When it came to cooking it I wrapped it in foil and DH put it on the grill. It took a while longer than we expected but it was so good he couldn't stop talking a bout it!

Not sure how this will work on a camp fire (I assume that will be your heat source if you are camping) but what I would do is make sure that he gets the pot "SMOKIN" hot. This bread is done in a 475 degree oven with the pot heated for a full 1/2 hour. Try it and let me know how it works. It is always fun to experiment.

Someone gave us a very large round yellow squash (not sure what variety) so I took the center out and stuffed it with hamburger, rice, onion, garlic, mushrooms, red bell pepper and 2 jalapeno for some kick. Added a can of tomato sauce to bind it together with Parmesan cheese on top. Baked it for 30+ minutes and it was YUMMY!. Served with fresh tomato, cucumber and Mozzarella salad.

Tonight Panini sandwiches made with my new Pesto Bread, a light coat of pizza sauce and Mozzarella cheese.
