Coffee Cake in a Mug

Today, Sienna and I made ourselves a coffee cake in a mug as a treat. It was so good! I let Sienna make her own. She loved it...and it made me think about how good these one-serving mug recipes are for teaching kids how to cook. Some of my greatest memories as a kid were of the times I spent experimenting in the kitchen with my cousin. We would come up with all sorts of crazy recipes and things to make. I have been wanting to start giving my kids some cooking lessons. They watch and help me all the time, but I know they want to make things on their own, and the mug recipes are great practice!


Here is the coffee cake in a cup recipe. We followed the recipe as written, but didn't have sour cream, so used plain yogurt instead.

What to do with all that Zucchini!

I seem to have a -never ending- abundance of zucchini growing in my garden. So, I have been trying many zucchini recipes. Here are some recipes that I have tried, and some that I would like to try.

Brown Sugar-Zucchini Bread

Zucchini Brownies

Zucchini Quiche (I use this crust recipe and make it in my food processor)

Zucchini Cakes

Pickled Zucchini

Grilled Zucchini II

Zucchini 'Pasta'

Zucchini Lasagna

Hope that these recipes can help you use up some of your zucchini. Hmmm...what should I make tonight???
