Love the idea of having them with zucchini - stealing that idea! I haven't been to Trader Joe's in a long time, but I love their frozen orange chicken - tastes just like take out but much healthier!

Zucchini and tomatoes are such great go together flavors, aren't they? I wish that brand would filter East. I am fortunate enough not to suffer much from seasonal allergies...I'm more sensitive to the molds that come near the end of summer and into fall. My son, however, suffers. This year, since we had such warm weather so early, he started his daily regimen of Zyrtec early...like March. Having a good level of the meds has really helped him this year. Past years, he's had to supplement with several allergy meds and steroids to get relief. I have also heard that about the local honey, as Cammy mentioned above. My neighbor got some relief by doing this. :) I love this idea with meatballs and zucchini and tomatoes! Zucchini and tomatoes are such great go together flavors, aren’t they?

If I get jammed up on time, I head to the Greek deli down the street or Panera. :) I've read some interesting articles on the local-honey connection Dr. J. mentioned. If you eat honey, it couldn't hurt to try it. I don’t buy pre-made entrees very often, mostly because I usually have portioned entrees in the freezer.

Tree pollen seems to be my nemesis and Allegra seems to be my hero! I have a hard time buying meatballs. Usually I'm so disappointed because I make a mean meatball even if I do say so myself ;) Like many people, I’ve developed allergies as I’ve aged.

When we return from our trip, the Trader Joe's in my town should have opened and i may seek out a few more favorites. We both suffer terribly from allergies. I take Singulair during allergy season, but I refuse to take it all year long as I do experience some side effects. And for some reason this year, it doesn't seem to be working as well as it has in the past.
