As November sets in, our local bounty of late-season vegetables and root crops makes it the perfect time for hearty, warming, comforting meals that highlight the rich, earthy flavors of the season.
This time of year, the local harvest starts to shift toward hearty, comforting vegetables, while also still offering vibrant seasonal greens. It's the perfect moment to explore recipes that highlight the richness of fall produce and the last of the fresh local crops before winter sets in.
This week’s vegetable blog feature, think outside of the box when it comes to using and enjoying this week’s Zucchini! Some of these recipes may even have you saying “WOW really, I can do that with Zucchini?!”
Although the last week might have felt more like early Summer, the colours in the trees and this week’s vegetable box sure give the signs that Fall is here in Halton! This week’s bundle has many root vegetables like this week’s blog feature Parsnips!
Needing a break from all the turkey and fixings leftovers? In this week’s bundle we continue to be spoiled by many local in season vegetables. I chose to feature the blog however on two favourite vegetables we haven’t seen yet this season; Kale and Spaghetti Squash.
Pumpkin seeds, often referred to as “pepitas,” are more than just a tasty snack – they are a nutritional powerhouse that can easily be incorporated into various meals.
Thanksgiving, it sure is the perfect time to give thanks to our local farmers who work hard all year to bring us delicious and fresh produce.
Whether you are cooking for one or twenty I hope this week’s Thanksgiving theme blog inspires you to add at least one new dish to your menu this weekend!
