August '23 - Cucumber, tomato, and pepper salad

I was trying to make a quick lunch the other day when a friend popped over and looking at all my beautiful fresh delivered produce this is what I came up with. This recipe can be made by literally ANYONE. There is no cooking, no precise measurements required, and only takes as long as needed to wash & cut some fresh veggies. The salad is cool, crisp, nutritious, sweet, smokey, and full of umami. You can omit or add any other fresh veggies you might have as well. If you create variations of your own, we would love to hear from you so we can try those as well, please comment below.

August - Green Beans, Lettuce, & Cherry Tomatoes

The “green” beans from the farm this week were one of my favs. They were plump, had a great snap and just the right amount of sweetness. I could have just eaten them as a snack but instead, I chose to use them as a side for dinner the same night they arrived. Check out how I prepared those as well as some quick blistered cherry tomatoes a top an otherwise basic green salad to round out the meal.
