I didn't think we'd get much at the market this week since we still had things like beets, peas & onion in the fridge but, we still ended up going home with two full bags.
Apple of my Eye Rye Bread - with figs!
New potatoes - We'll serve these cooked on the grill with burgers this week
Buttercrunch Lettuce - for lunch salads
Eggs - a few of these already went into ice cream
Carrots - these were just too pretty to resist
Chard - Some we'll use this week but most we'll blanch & freeze for later
Beans - the first of the season
Strawberries - all of these went into a batch of Strawberry Buttermilk Ice Cream (recipe later this week)
On to Menu Planning Monday...
Brown Rice with chard, tomatoes & raisins
Grilled Steak with Green Beans
Brats with Broccoli Salad
Pizza - with whatever in the fridge sounds good
Burgers with Potatoes & Onions

ReplyDeleteAll the colors in your picture of the farmer's market finds are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI do the same thing at the market - I know I have plenty of vegetables in the fridge (and the garden!), and I only intend to pick up a few things, then I just can't resist! Fresh green beans! Baby beets! Garlic scapes!
ReplyDeleteI usually spend the better part of Saturday mornings cleaning and stuffing the refrigerator with fresh produce!
I just love the beautiful color of that chard! I get so jealous of your weekend farmer's market brunch. :)
