Most of my recipes are fast and feature local ingredients. You’ll also find nearly all the recipes from Simply in Season.
On Sundays I normally participate in the Sunday Supper blogging event where a number of bloggers post recipes on a specific theme. It’s a lot of fun and a great way to find new recipes.

I have to admit I was getting a little panicky when I saw a sign that said this is the last week for asparagus season. I had one more recipe left in Simply in Season where asparagus was an absolute necessity. This is it. I decided to try a farm stand near me instead of …
While the title of this recipe is Dandelion Bacon Salad, Simply in Season says you can use any kind of greens. Good thing; while I do have dandelions in my yard, I do have two dogs. Our neighbors also have dogs. So I felt much safer just using some of the greens that came with my first CSA pickup.
I'm not sure why, but a couple of the cakes in Simply in Season don't have recipes for frosting. Does that mean they don't have frosting? What is a cake without frosting? Since I had apricots and prunes left over from making the Pork Apricot Skillet and Marrakesh Lamb Stew, I thought I'd give the Bulgarian Yogurt Cake a try. I made it for Sunday dinner at my parents, and brought along some powdered sugar just in case it needed frosting after all.
This is a recipe from From Asparagus to Zucchini that I found last year when I was searching for a bok choy recipe. Before I realized that you can use glazes like this for any type of green or stir fry or meat. After taking a few classes at my CSA, I realized that a couple of glazes / stir fry sauces / salad dressings in your back pocket can make very efficient (and delicious!) use of most any vegetable that comes your way. This has become one of our favorites.
This took about a quart of strawberries, so between this and the strawberry salad, plus several that I used for quality control (you MUST taste your produce to make sure it's good, after all) I used up the two quarts from the Farmer's Market. Now I need to find some more!
