One Pan Sausage and Vegetable Dinner
My pantry is full of spices and spice mixes from all over the world. Many of them were given to me by friends who know how much I love to cook and experiment with new flavors.

This week while I was cruising down the meat isle I saw a lot of pork riblet packages with prices that were reasonably low. I couldn’t resist picking up a package to try out, even though I don’t normally buy pork riblets. I’m so glad I did though. Pork riblets are trimmed pieces from spare ribs. They are easy to cook and they cost much less than a rack of ribs. The package I picked up was pretty meaty without much fat.

If you’re thinking of starting or expanding a garden, one of these easiest and nicest things to grow is zucchini. They produce a lot in a short amount of time and are great tasting vegetables that can be used in many different foods. Like last year, I planted too many in my garden this year!
