Thrive Market - It's like the Costco of organics...this is where I get all of my sugar, flour, baking supplies, kids snacks, etc.
Zaycon Foods- This is where I buy most of my meat products in bulk. Â The quality is amazing and the prices just can't be beat! Â I mean, $1.89 a pound for boneless all-natural chicken breasts!! Â It is bulk but you can always split with a friend or make up a bunch of freezer meals like I do!

I love zucchini. In the summer I like to make fried zucchini but have not done so yet. The heat is so intense lately I don’t want to go to all that trouble ha ha! Yours is about my speed.
Today I just threw some zucchini, onion and tomatoes in a crockpot with pork chops and hope it all turns out ok! 🙂
This looks good!!
Stopping by from redrose-vintage.blogspot.com. I found you on the Find and Follow blog hop! Stop by when ever you’d like 🙂
This is especially delicious if you slice the zucchini thin, and let it cook until a little crisp.
This is my favorite way to do veggies in the summer! Easy, and Always delicious.
