Peach salsa
After an afternoon of peach picking, I needed to come up with healthy ways to enjoy all of our peaches. Salsa is a great treat because it is so versatile. It can be a simple, yet delicious condiment to chips. Or it can transform a grilled chicken breast into a satisfying dinner. The choice is […]
Sicilian Eggplant Caponata
This is a delicious vegetarian meal. You can serve it as the main course, serve it over pasta, or serve it as an appetizer as a brushetta-like topping for delicious, crusty Italian bread. I used Sicilian Eggplants, which are smaller, round eggplants that I find have a sweeter flavor than other eggplants. You can use […]

Fresh kale combined with zesty citrus make for a refreshing salad on a hot, summer night. This is also a great make ahead recipe as the kale keeps its texture without wilting. I enjoyed this salad for lunch the next day. If you like my recipes, please subscribe below.
Garlic Scape Compound Butter
If you have never had a garlic scape before, try to find some at a local farm in early summer. They are the tops of the garlic, but they have a mild flavor that is a cross between a scallion, chive, and mild garlic. In my farm coop delivery this week, I received my second […]

You don’t get any more American than cherry pie for the 4th of July. I modified the recipe so that everyone can have their own ramekin of cherry cobbler. Even though I cut down on the sugar, the result was a sweet and tart cobbler leaving my kids asking for seconds. If you enjoy my […]
