Cara is hosting this weeks WC challenge. http://carascravings.blogspot.com/
Our ingredients are: basil, tomatoes, garlic, zucchini, nuts & strawberries.
My meal: Sauteed Veggies, Chicken Cordon Bleu & Strawberry Almond Parfait
Chicken: I just put some Southwestern Spice mix on the chicken & grilled it up. I added some slices of swiss cheese & ham on top, allowed to melt. Pretty easy.
Sauteed Veggies
My fresh ingredients
Basil-about 5 leaves
Garlic- about 2 cloves
Tomatoes: about 4 or 5 tomatoes, cored & seeded, diced Zucchini: 2 zucchinis, sliced and cut in half
Onions: 1 onion sliced & cut in half
Also used a little EVOO & tomato paste
Heat olive oil in a pan, add onions until they are translucent & soft, then add zucchini. About 5 minutes, add tomatoes, garlic & basil. Stir for about 5 minutes, add tomato paste.
Cover & cook for about 15 minutes.
Strawberry Almond Parfait
Ingredients:
Strawberries
1 banana
graham crackers
sliced almonds
Almond Extract
Slice up the strawberries & banana. Crushed the graham crackers. Mix a little bit of the almond extract with the vanilla yogurt. In the glasses layer graham crackers, strawberries, bananas, yogurt. It will probably take two layers. Top off with sliced almonds.

Looks awesome! I could go for some of those veggies right now...or that parfait!
