Versatile. Tasty. Inexpensive. Charming. Easy on the eyes. Easy on the nose. It’s kind of weird because while zucchini tastes mighty fine on its own, you can pretty much shove it into anything you please without ever noticing it was even there. It’s quite the surreptitious green veg if I do say so myself.
I know you’ve heard of “zoats.” The health junkie world has gone bonkerpants over fluffing up their oatmeal with zucchini galore. Must be a millennial thing. Did you know you can even freeze zuch slices and toss them in your smoothie for extra creaminess? But wait, there’s more. You can put it into muffins. Duh. BUT NOT JUST THE SWEET KIND, YO.
If you’ve read my blog for longer than eleven seconds, you probably know that I have a mild [yet serious] almond meal obsession. Hence: Blue Diamond sriracha almond meal. Because like, why the heck not?
Raise your hand if you think flour made of sriracha spiced almonds doesn’t sound like the best idea since legalizing same sex marriage. I don’t see any hands. Yeah, I thought so. I’m proud of the boldness of these almonds like I’m proud of the boldness of progressive America. Cue the Lee Greenwood. But seriously. I’m proud to watch history in the making, to live in a country where outlawing same sex marriage is a thing of the past. I’m proud that we as a country recognize that the world is not flat, that woman do indeed deserve to vote, and that it’s the constitutional right of ALL people to love who they want to love.
And if that person resembles a jazzed up savory muffin loaded with oodles of zucchini, then so be it. …because I kind of wanna marry these. Love wins! Print [Tweet “Snack smarter, not harder.
