Calabacitas Recipe with Summer Corn, Zucchini, Green Chiles and Lime

This vegan recipe makes enough for a generous side dish, perfect for picnics and backyard grilled suppers; but if you'd prefer to make this a one-dish meal, add in two generous cups of cooked chicken or drained canned black beans, pour into a casserole, cover and bake in a moderate 350ºF oven for 20 to 25 minutes or so, until heated through.

Ingredients:

2 tablespoons olive oil
4 smallish zucchini squash, sliced into half moons
3 ears of fresh corn, kernels sliced off
3 ripe plum tomatoes, seeded, diced
1/2 cup roasted mild green chile, chopped
4 oz. chopped jalapenos
4-5 cloves fresh peeled garlic, chopped
Sea salt, to taste
Lemon pepper, to taste
2-3 good pinches of ground cumin
A drizzle of raw agave sweetener
Juice from 1 fresh large lime [more juice, or water if needed]
3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
Lime wedges for serving

Instructions:

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet and saute the squash for three to four minutes, until it starts to turn a bit golden.

Add the corn, tomatoes, green chile, jalapenos, garlic, sea salt, lemon pepper, cumin, a drizzle of raw agave, and lime juice; stir to combine.

Cover and cook for about 15 minutes, until the veggies are tender-crisp. Add more liquid if needed.

To serve, stir in the fresh cilantro. Top with lime wedges.

Serves 4 to 6.

Computer Crisis

I'm sending this post using my parents Dell Laptop. Last night my computer decided to stop working! Checked everything, all components and taken everything out of case to see if it was something simple like RAM, cleared CMOS, changd battery, and now it leaves me with one of two components... The motherboard or processor! and I can't test either because I have no spares. The crappy thing about this is that I have all my college work saved on the hard disks but can't access the work. I just recieved my grant today 450 pounds. Which 100 went to my parents as I owe them it, and now that leaves me with 350 to either a) upgrade (had pc since 2003) or try and figure out which I need to replace. So at the moment im calling everyone as I need to find a AMD Socket A processor fsb 333mhz. This will tell me whether im dealing with a screwed up CPU or mainboard. When I start the thing up I don't get any beeps, no POST and no video. All fans work, lights, hdd's, cd roms etc...

I can't believe this happened at this time, everytime I get a bit of money so that I can relax a bit, something like this happens.

to sara; email me at whoa182 AT hotmail DOT COM with the address so I can send you back that 10 pounds. I don't have any access to my inbox on the other pc atm.
