This week’s recipes are focused on warming comfort foods to nourish you and your family while continuing to support your local farmers and reduce your carbon footprint, even during the cold Ontario winters when we aren’t visiting local farm stands and markets.
January usually means back-to routines like work, school, and busy week day schedules, so for this week’s blog theme I wanted to share some ideas for easy and healthy snack ideas featuring this week’s local seasonal vegetables.
With this being our last vegetable bundle before next week’s Holidays I wanted to share some favourite holiday side dishes/snacks featuring this week’s vegetables. These dishes will not only bring a burst of colour and flavour to your table, but they also support Ontario farmers and showcase the very best of what this season has to offer. These recipes are sure to impress your family/guests and become new holiday traditions.Â
This time of year, many of us are busy preparing for the Holidays that finding time to prepare healthy and delicious meals can be a challenge. Not to mention the dishes, who wants to be washing dishes when they can be watching Holiday movies or enjoying time with Family?Â
As the days grow shorter and the temperatures drop, there's nothing more comforting than a steaming bowl of stew. Stews are the ultimate cold-weather dish, offering rich, hearty flavors and warming nutrition that nourish both body and soul. Made even better thanks to our local in season vegetables like carrots, potato, brussels sprouts and squash.
This week’s blog is focused on homemade soup using this week in season produce…. squash, turnip, leek, spinach, potato, carrots, onion and garlic, the perfect soup ingredients!
