My favorite summer meal.

Fresh sliced tomatoes.
Cucumbers, onion and green pepper in a vinegar mix.
Fried corn.
Crowder or garden peas.
Zucchini stir fry.
Fried bread.

Here are the recipes for those dishes that aren't obvious.

Cucumber, onion and green pepper vinegar mix:
Slice cumcumber, onion and green pepper to fill
half of any size bowl.
Sprinkle with salt, pepper and sugar.
Fill bowl halfway with apple cider vinegar.
Fill the rest of the way with water.
Chill for a few hours.

*I will keep this mix for a week or two and just add more
veggies as they get low.

Fried Corn:
Slice the corn off of sweet corn cobs.
Melt butter in a pan and put in corn.
Sprinkle with salt and pepper and cook till tender.

Zucchini stir fry:
Olive oil in pan.
Slice in zucchini, yellow squash, green tomato, fresh corn
off the cob, onion, green pepper and any other fresh
garden vegetable.
Sprinkle with garlic salt, lemon pepper and basil.
Cook till tender.

Fried bread:
2 cups flour
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp baking powder
1 and 1/2 cups milk

Stir all together. Heat 1/4-1/2 inch of oil in pan.
Drop biscuit or a little larger size spoonfuls into pan.
Fry till golden brown and turn. Fry again till golden
brown.

You will think you have entered your eternal home early
when eating a meal such as this! Don't forget the hot sauce
for the peas!
