The snappy taste of a fresh apple is like biting into the crispness of fall. YUMM! Our Harvest Home Farmers’ Markets are full of apples freshly picked by our local farmers for the best taste.
Some are for carving. Some are for eating! Delicious in muffins, bread, or pancakes. Pumpkin adds creamy flavor to smoothies, and soups or makes a mouth-watering meal (See recipes). It’s nutritiously rich, high in fiber, and low in calories.
Amazing Winter Squash: White Delicata and Sweet Dumpling with green strips. Pale yellow Butternut. Dark green, round Acorn. West Indian Calabaza and surprising Spaghetti Squash! They look like decorations, but their real beauty lies on the inside.
We all need veggie nutrition, especially kids. But, “kids don’t like veggies.” Actually, kids don’t like bland, boring veggies. A bit of seasoning, a little fun, and a few “sneaky” tricks can get your whole family eating more veggies.
We hope you enjoyed a real Thanksgiving Feast. Tired of cooking and want something a bit easier? Use all those leftover dishes. You can reheat them or turn them into new dishes with very little time and effort. Think about Turkey Soup, Turkey Chili, or Turkey Stew loaded with fresh or left over veggies. Or open-faced Turkey sandwiches with stuffing and gravy.
