What this blog is and what it isn't

This is a food blog with recipes and ideas for using the seasonal vegetables from your garden, friend's gardens and community supported agriculture shares (CSA). If you haven't checked out a CSA in your area, it is worth your time to check out what is available to you, and LOCAL HARVEST is a great place to start.

I am trying oh so hard to become a Forks over Knives type vegan, with no animal products of any kind and no added oil. I have given up meat, fish, dairy, eggs and most processed foods and am moving toward the goal of no oil. While you will find eggs, dairy and oil in my earlier recipes, the goal is not to use them anymore.

Some of my earlier recipes include dairy and eggs, but I am moving away from that, I am endeavoring to create delicious all vegan no fat added recipes.

Grilled Squash and Eggplant
















Feeds 4


1/4 C olive oil
2 cloves minced garlic
3 Tbsp. balsamic vinegar
2 tsp pepper
1 tsp salt

1 large yellow squash
1-2 small eggplant

Preheat grill to get it hot. Whisk together first five ingredients. Slice squash and eggplant lengthwise into 3/8" planks. Immediately place in large shallow dish and pour oil/vinegar mixture over slices. Turn to coat both sides of planks. Grill 5-7 minutes on each side (squash may require slightly longer).
Serve immediately.
