Joanne and I returned from our fabulous trip to the west coast of the island (read about it here and here) to find this:

How do zucchini grow so fast in such a short time?!?! Rhetorical question – I know it is just their thing, to explode in size when your back is turned.

We decided to make a quick lunch, from this and other bounty from the garden. With the help of these and a can of pizza sauce:

Miracle product! Add a little pizza sauce, a little shredded mozzarella and you’ve got lunch!

I had made some quick refrigerator pickles from my pole bean bounty, before Joanne’s arrival.

And Joanne made a quick little zucchini salad using olive oil, vinegar, garlic…and oregano and chives from my garden.

Joanne’s plate – with an almost basic Margherita pizza (she added some shredded salami) – the basil came from my garden
My plate – basically the same except I added a cremini mushroom to my pizza and decided against the salami.
A quick and delicious al fresco lunch. With the clothes from our recent trip freshly laundered and drying in the background 🤭.

That’s it for me! And Donna is off hiking in Portugal with her husband, so no Link Party this month. She wrote about what was on her plate here before she abandoned me left.

Please let me know in the Comments what was on your plate this past month! As always, I look forward to them.

Rock on,

The WB
