Our new rental home has everything that I wanted in a kitchen – lots of storage spaces, tons of counter space, brand new appliances – We are the first tenant to be using the stove, dishwasher and the refrigerator.

The awful, uncomfortable refrigerator - the most hated item in my kitchen right now. It’s a side-by-side, stainless steel and it’s the most difficult appliance that I have ever used. And trust me, my old refrigerator was a top freezer, small thing and sometimes I wish I had that one instead of this beast.

Summer Vegetable Bake Tian

July 30, 2013 by Monica in Baking, Quick Meal, Vegetable, Vegetarian, Savory

Originating in Provence, a tian is a French word that describes a shallow earthenware casserole and because why use another word for it? The food it contains. Traditionally it features a variety of vegetables, herbs and cheeses that are layered and then baked. Showcasing summer’s squash and tomatoes, I threw in some potatoes too – because well I’m crafty like that.

But if you search a tian can be made with pretty much any vegetable you like, onions, eggplant, herbs, and I can go on and on.

This post is going to be short and sweet savory.

I was in the kitchen making a salad.

And I found myself with left over zucchini.

Had a light bulb moment and decided to make some chips out of them.
