The meals last week were certainly very colorful and tasty. We are still working on using up the huge bag of carrots we harvested a few weeks back so we enjoyed an easy and very delicious carrot salad with almost each one of our meals.
The tromboncino squashes are young and very tender and sweet - perfect for summer squash dishes. We tried a new squash casserole recipe that caught our eye and it turned out really delicious. The guys even asked for seconds and that's always a good thing!
Enjoying sweet and plump figs on sandwiches, in flour tortillas and toppings on pizza. Figs are a very versatile food and enjoying using them in savory dishes.
Not to mention for dessert we've been devouring Jordanne's scrumptious avocado and chocolate cupcakes. Thing is they are so good - too good in fact they are dangerous! Dangerous to the waistline (well, for me anyway) I'm the kind that looks at desserts and can gain 5 lbs.
