| Summer Vegetable Torta |
Here is a great way to use all that zucchini you grow or receive from folks who do.
This beauty was prepared by soon-to-be blogging partner, Linda, at a mid-summer lunch she recently hosted for all we gals. This is insanely good!
Pic is of the torta before we dug in, and you can see Linda’s beautiful table service in the background. She served this with Garlic Parmesan Popovers. She joked it was her “Pinterest” luncheon as all the recipes came from there, and you can grab the one for the popovers from either her food boards* or mine (“Food Glorious Food #6”). Recipe for torta is below. It’s also low carb and gluten-free.
Linda’s source for this recipe may be found on All Day I Dream About Food.
