When I was growing up it seemed that everything was simple. My mother would go outside and pick a few things in the garden and a delicious meal was prepared. Zucchini flowers, peppers, tomatoes, fresh basil. I think you get the idea. These were much simpler times and quite frankly, the place I go in my heart to find comfort. I sometimes try to create a dish from my memory of the meals that I grew up with.
