From the Farmers' Markets dept.
The East Van Farmers Market was
hopping today! In the peak of harvest, the market stalls were full of
gorgeous things ranging from beautiful flowers to picture perfect
squash to rosy apples. Unfortunately we forgot our camera as we rushed
out the door in the morning!
This is what we brought home
(clockwise from left): organic arugula, organic cavolo nero, monster
zucchini, organic basil, 4 varieties of organic heirloom tomatoes,
green beans, blueberries (centre).
I'll be using the zucchini (2 for $1!) in chocolate zucchini cake and zucchini cheese bread. Most of the basil and the beans will be used in trenette with pesto . I'll probably use the cavolo nero in a soothing vegetable soup. And we'll just savour the fragrant tomatoes as they are!
