Farmer's Market Meals - Week Two

[Let’s see if I can really keep this up all summer!]

 This week there were a few more things at the local market –

  We chose beets, new potatoes, cauliflower, green tomatoes, and red leaf lettuce 

[oh, and of course, more of those YUMMY cinnamon rolls!] 

– We still had a bit of yellow squash from last week –

So here’s the menu –

 

‘grilled’ steaks

-      I cannot lie – these little [philly] steaks came out of a box in the freezer section [originally bought for steak breakfast bagels] and cooked up quickly on my grill pan… 

roasted new potatoes

-      easy peasy: stuck them in the oven with a little olive oil 

before preparing the rest of the meal –

sautéed beet greens

[followed a recipe I found, much like the skillet greens from last week – 

and surprisingly, we enjoyed these --]

 red leaf lettuce, beet, and goat cheese salad with balsamic dressing

This is possibly my favorite salad of all time – and yes. I roasted the beets myself. 

[Did it the night before so they could do a slow roast 

while I was watching my Ellen shows from last week -] 

sally lunn quick rolls

[kinda like a sweet biscuit with egg – ha.]

 squash casserole

a summertime favorite

fried green tomatoes

- yum

and buffalo popcorn cauliflower

[We're not a fan -]

But all in all... well… it was a delicious meal.

And there’s still a few of the strawberry popsicles to have for dessert – a treat!
