We are officially in the heart of produce season! What a fantastic time of year for fresh, in-season ingredients!
Are you looking for new ways to enjoy summer squash, peaches, fresh corn on the cobb, tomatoes, or watermelon? We have some great-tasting ideas for you this week!
Soup in the summer?! Yes! The Zucchini & Basil Soup is delicious served warm or cold…plus it will help you enjoy your zucchini in a unique and creative way! A couple other delicious ways to enjoy summer squash are the Stuffed Squash Taco Boats (the kids, or grandkids, will enjoy helping put these together) and the Summer Squash & Tomato Gratin (a few simple ingredients = huge flavor!).
We picked up some fresh peaches from a local farmer last weekend that were so sweet, delicious and juicy, we were kicking ourselves we didn’t buy more! Freshly-picked peaches would be perfect for the Cajun Chicken Salad with Grilled Peaches. For more grilling inspiration this week, check out the Kiwi-Ginger Grilled Chicken Legs and the Charred Corn Salad with Fresh Herbs – these would go great together!
If you are craving a flavor-loaded simple pasta – bursting with tomatoes and garlic – make sure to include the Take Me to Italy Tomato & Garlic Pasta in your meal plan this week! And, as we move towards the end of blueberry season and the beginning of melon season, it is the perfect time to enjoy the Watermelon Blueberry Salad!
Know Your Farmer. Know Your Food.
Keep it Simple and EAT REAL!
