Happy 1st Birthday Albion Park Community Garden

Today it was my privilege to attend the first birthday of the Community Garden at Albion Park. Now those folk know how to put on a feast!!!!!! I mistakenly failed to take a picture of the awesome spread that was provided for gardeners and visitors. You just have to believe me that so many delicious meals came out of their lovely little garden. I did however get this shot!

It's so wonderful to see volunteers who enthusiastically attend weekly and have a great rapport with each other, as a result there is a fantastic garden that the community has assess to.

A big mention to Ross, Ainslie and Chris for their vision and leadership in getting the garden to happen.

Well, thanks for the party guys, you fed me well today xxx

Stuffed Zucchini

One of the nicest pleasures of being involved with the community garden is the introduction of new recipes to my repertoire. 

For example, I have never before had access to humongous sized zucchini's before!! So when we picked them I'm like "what do you do with these babies???" I was then informed that one could stuff and bake them so I gave it a go.

For this particular recipe I made it up.

Ingredients

• A very big zucchini
• onion
• Tin of tuna
• rice
• tin or fresh tomatoes
• egg
• herbs
• veggie stock
• cheese

The how too

• boil rice
• fry onion
• mix tuna, rice, tomatoes, egg, onions into a bowl
• scrape seeds out of zucchini and make a nice little canoe
• pop mixed ingredients into the zucchini
• top with grated cheese
• pop onto a preheated oven 180deg
• Depending on how you like it, give it 50min or if your like me bake it until the zucchini is soft

There you go, I hope this is clear enough!!
