Ontario Seasonal Recipes

You can sure tell a new month is here and that we are moving into the Fall Season in a few weeks when squashes start popping up in the fields, farm markets and our wonderful Seasonal vegetable bundles.  

With the return of squash in our box this week I’m focusing my blog on easy and delicious ways to use and enjoy this seasonal vegetable.  

With September just around the corner (sorry) many of us are starting to think about back to routines such as heading into the office more regularly, kids/teachers returning to school and mornings becoming busier, so that’s why this week’s blog I’m featuring easy, healthy and delicious ways to incorporate vegetables into your breakfast. These recipes will keep you focused and satisfied until lunch time (don’t forget last week we focused on easy lunches).  

For this week’s blog I’m sharing easy recipes featuring this week’s bundle that you can make and easily take with you for delicious lunches on the go.  

This week we are fortunate to receive a few unique and different green vegetables. You may or may not recognize them but have you used them in your recipes? This week’s blog I wanted to share ways you can enjoy these new vegetables: the okra (the green and fuzzy one), tomatillo (no they aren’t green tomatoes) and jalapenos (careful those aren’t your typical sweet peppers). 

Do you love salads, especially in the summer with all the fresh local vegetables? But getting tired of lettuce salads?  

Well then, this week’s blog is for you! I’ll be sharing easy salad recipes that feature this week’s vegetables and are lettuce free!  

I always love when the box contains a new vegetable we haven’t been given before. So, this week’s blog I’ll focus on how to enjoy these delicious eggplants!
