One of the things I made was this coconut Thai curry with the garden veggies (zucchini, carrots, tomatoes, onions) and shrimp, and squid.
This is surprisingly very easy if you have a jar of Thai curry paste (red or green) and a can of coconut milk (unsweetened) and whatever protein and veggies you want to put in it. My husband likes it with LOTS of hot chiles from the garden. We have several different types of hot peppers - mostly for him.
Then the next day, I grilled whole chickens with some jerk seasoning, corn, and some more veggies. It's usually my husband's job to grill, but he was busy with work this week, so I did it this time. I still need to improve my skills, especially when it comes to charcoal grilling, but I'm getting there.
I love these easy summer meals! (Our puppy thinks so too!)
