As part of our winter delivery, we always receive an abundance of potatoes and leeks. Leeks are a member of the allium family, or a relative of garlic and onions. They've got a silky, mild flavor and can be used in stir-frys, scrambles, and just about anywhere you'd use an onion. 

  I don't know about you, but I am doing all I can to stay well among a barrage of sick people. So, it seems, it's that time of year - SOUP SEASON!...

If you're anything like me, you might just have one foot in summer and the other ready to step into fall. So this week I made a recipe that combin...

It’s a sure sign of Spring when the sweet crispy stalks of asparagus start popping up at the farmer’s market. Although you can typically find asparagus in your grocery store several months of the year, this nutrient dense veggie is at its absolute peak in flavor if you can get the ultra fat stalks from your …

The farmer’s markets have finally started and we couldn’t be more thrilled. I am SO ready for fresh, local produce full of aliveness and vitality. When I eat veggies grown by my community, I can FEEL the energy as I eat it. And if you think there’s not much in season yet, think again! I … Continue reading "Spring Farm-To-Table Frittata"

Ah, Mardi Gras. I’ve always had a special affinity for Fat Tuesday.

I love finding and creating recipes that come together quickly, have easy-to-find ingredients, and don’t use every dish in the house to make. So, I was intrigued …

As the temperature drops and there's even a hint of snow in the forecast this week, we are fully embracing soup season!! Make this delicious, comforting Spinach White Bean Soup with ingredients you probably already have on hand. Ready in about 30 minutes, this is a frequent staple in our home during the cold weather months.  

As many of you know, our Healthy Harvest family gets 90% of our groceries from local farmer’s markets, which means we have learned to eat what's in season. Sometimes that means learning to work with ingredients I haven't always been familiar with. Before working markets, I only rarely cooked eggplant, but as summer comes to an end and I can't even look at summer squash anymore, I decided to research some new recipes to add to our repertoire.

Unless it’s a soup or stew, meals in our house rarely take more than 30 minutes. While I think everyone deserves delicious, wholesome, homemade meals and I also think cooking can be a relaxing creative endeavor rather than a chore, it doesn’t mean I want to spend all night in the kitchen.
