I loaded up at the farmers market today. Only two weeks left for the season.

3 pints of little tomatoes
a dozen larger tomatoes
fresh basil (last of the season)
strawberries (variety Seascape)
kale
beets
sweet corn
two kinds of sweet red peppers
apples: pink pearl, crisp crimson, ginger gold, newton pippin, spitzenberg
bartlett pears
green onions and radishes
assorted fingerling potatoes

will be so sorry when the market is over for the year

1. Baked chicken breasts

with caramelized onions and apple slices, baked potatoes, and broccoli.

2. Swiss steak.

Or at least that's what we call it.

Take one cheap, tough as leather hunk of meat, and one can beef broth, one can condensed tomato soup, and put in crock pot on low for 8+ hours, then serve over noodles.

3. Pork roast.

Roasted new potatoes, corn.

4. Roasted chicken with sage/cornbread dressing, mashed potatoes, field peas,

mixed greens (turnip greens, kale, mustard greens - sauteed in garlic, cumin, olive oil), lightly dressed red/gold cherry tomatoes. Lots of it came from the Mennonite farmers' market and we had lots of leftovers to eat during the week. Yum, yum. Next year, we hope to have all of this from our own garden. Good goal!

5. I have never tasted field peas.

Alas. Never lived in the right region for them.

9. Blackeyed peas are a variety of field pea, but I like Dixie Cream White

Zipper peas best.

7. mixed barlottis and northerns

Cooked in the slow cooker. Mixed in little bits of ham. Topped with raw onion and Salvadoran creme.

10. leftovers.

Which is actually what I had for breakfast and lunch as well. The fridge was filling up with them.

11. Apple cider vinegar braised pork roast smothered in turnips

String beans and cornbread. Got the pork roast recipe from Lidias kitchen. Slightly modified it leaving out the wine and substituted bayleaf for rosemy. Yum.
