A great recipe to cool down during the summer is a gazpacho. http://www.mcgacanola.org/food_recipe_individual.cfm?id=122
A wonderful cold soup that is pureed and can be as spicy as you would like it. The homemade croutons are a great touch.
When I have too much bread in my home and needing to decide what to do with it, I cut the bread into cubes and freeze it so it is ready for homemade croutons or for a great, fast and easy try the recipe Rapini n’ Orecchiette. It calls for bread cubes.

Rapini is a common vegetable in Chinese and Italian cuisine. Also known as Broccoli Rabe, it is a good source of many vitamins and minerals. Orecchiette is an Italian pasta that is shaped as an ear. If you cannot find orecchiette pasta, try this recipe with small shell pasta.
And now for something sweet, try the Lemon-Lime Cupcakes. Easy to take to the lake, cabin or for that Canada’s Day celebration
