Seeing as summer is almost over, I should tell you about the best slaw ever. What makes it the best slaw ever? Fennel, one of my favorite flavors, and a lack of mayonnaise. Oh, it’s easy too.

Today, while I was staffing the Lowell Farmers’ Market, I was reminded that I haven’t updated in a long while – hi, Michele – this one’s for you!
I’ll start with this week’s CSA share – it’s week nine, smack dab in the middle of the season. We got:
Weird, but good!

Tasty, versatile, easy, and refreshing – what more could you ask for out of a summer dish? This salsa tastes great and could be served as a dip for tortilla chips, with quesadillas, or as a topping for grilled chicken, fish or shrimp. AND it features radishes, one of my favorite vegetables.

I love the CSA in the early season – not only can I eat everything in my box with no problem but I can also supplement its contents with a trip to the farmers’ market.

Playing catch-up here – this was that dinner that I made for Gist’s birthday way back on May 5th. This is a really nice spring-time dish, which is not surprising considering it came from the Spring section of Jack Bishop’s A Year in a Vegetarian Kitchen. It even looks like spring – I love the [...]

I have been making this tasty vegan meal for years. It’s the perfect combination of sweet, salty and tangy and easy enough, especially with some prep, for Wednesday after yoga, when I’m tired and starving! It’s also good cold, nice for hot days and picnics.

They say breakfast is the most important meal of the day…
