Parmesan Crusted Squash with Fresh Tomato Sauce

Published at 03/21/2016June 2, 2016 In Category Blog, Recipes, Tomatoes, Vegetables Tags: squash, summer squash, tomatoes, yellow squash, zucchini

The sundried tomatoes in this recipe are totally optional as far as I’m concerned. And with the pretty yellow tomatoes from this week’s box, I think I’d skip them. It’s a recipe adapted from one at Whole Foods. If you don’t have pesto, or don’t like it, just brush the squash slices with olive oil and then use the same breading. The orange juice in the sauce is a really great idea. I’m seeing more and more recipes pairing oranges and tomatoes. Not exactly in season together, I know, but the acids and the sweetness of each complement each other really nicely.

Here’s what Mr. Bittman has to say about corn bread: “Corn bread is indispensable, especially to a vegetarian diet, where its full flavor and slightly crunchy texture are welcome at any meal. And few dishes deliver so much for so little work.”

Grilled Chicken and Potatoes with Tomato and Cucumber Salad

This recipe comes from the March 2013 edition of Fine Cooking magazine. The combination of olive oil, lemon, anchovy and garlic is one of my favorite marinades for any kind of grilling. If you have a little time, you can use the vinaigrette to marinate the chicken for up to 4 hours before grilling. Delicious.

Pickled Cabbage

This traditional breakfast pickle is part of a family of Japanese quick-salted pickles. Some of you may grow shiso. If not, I’ve found it at the Buford Highway Farmers Market. It’s definitely traditional, but you can leave it out.

Tomato Egg Salad

Don’t know why, but it had never occurred to me to combine these ingredients into a salad – but it seems perfect for a summer lunch or dinner. It’s adapted from a recipe in Better Homes and Gardens magazine.

Ajad (Thai Cucumber Relish)

Published at 03/21/2016 In Category Blog, Recipes, Vegetables Tags: cucumbers

This relish is adapted from a recipe in Thai Street Food by David Thompson. Substitute some of your sweet onion instead of the shallots if you like. And any hot pepper will do here – or use dried red chile flakes for a little bit of heat.

Warm Cabbage and Green Beans

Published at 03/21/2016June 22, 2016 In Category Blog, Cabbage, green beans, Recipes, Vegetables Tags: cabbage, green beans

This dish is a more complicated. It’s adapted from a recipe by Marcus Samuelsson, the Ethiopian-born chef who grew up in Sweden. This is definitely from the Ethiopian side of his heritage. This recipe ran about 2 years ago in the New York Times. Injera is available at the DeKalb Farmers Market. I’ve tried making my own – total failure! This is one time that store bought definitely trumps homemade.
