Our Garden Produce September 2014
Our first proper produce garden was a smashing success.
We learned a lot, and here is what we would do differently next time:
Gleaning from New Pond Farm
We got invited this weekend to come New Pond Farm and pick some of their surplus before they rip out their garden for the season tomorrow.
Processing 21 Pounds of Homegrown Tomatoes
This is not our whole crop but it is the most we’ve picked in one day this year. We are roasting it up to use in sandwiches, on burgers, in fritattas, and in omelets.

Tonight we ate my husband’s first homegrown cabbage. It was delicious braised in organic cream.
Recipe: Chickpea Stuffed Poblano Peppers
This is a delicious vegetarian meal served with a simple side salad of garden lettuce, avocado and cilantro. You can make the peppers as spicy as you like; we are wusses and use about 3/4 of a tablespoon of chili powder, but I know others that would want more.
Recipe: Traditional Eggplant Parmesan
I love a good eggplant parmesan, and this one blows the socks off of any I’ve ever had.
Recipe: Summer Squash with Sauce, Pine Nuts & Parmesan
This is a wonderfully delicious vegetarian meal or could also be offered as a excellent family style side dish.

This soup is easy and delicious, rendered interesting and memorable by the surprising combination of Syrian spices
Moosewood Restaurant at Last!
One of the things that has been on my bucket list for a long time has been to visit the Moosewood Restaurant in Ithaca, NY, since for over three decades I have made their recipes.

This hits the spot any time of year. Easy and delicious, you’ll love it!
