We love zucchini. We slice it and cook it in the broiler with garlic butter and cheese. We eat it sautéed with bacon and cheese. We put it every kind of homemade soup. It's even good raw with ranch dip.
God and Texas!

My wife wanted some fresh cranberries to make cranberry orange muffins. It took me forever to get across to her that the bakeries don't even use fresh cranberries.

Based on the aesthetics of it, I liked the previous versions I had eaten and the fact that I love other fruits, yes, I had high hopes raw cranberries.

I love peas. Canned, fresh, soup, salad. Especially the green ones. I like to kid my wife about them being frog eggs. She hates frogs.

Zucchini is ok. We grill it with onions and seaseme seeds but I like Ron’s idea. We’ll give it a go.

Blueberries are good. An old friend had a 30 gallon still. He made one full run of blueberry (blueberry mash- not corn with berries added) in 2001. Best I ever had.

Dragon fruit sounds interesting. It may prove hard to find in rural NC. Haha
