Whether from your home garden, the local Farmer's Market or CSA, or simply from the supermarket, there is nothing quite like fresh food eaten in the season in which it thrives. But sometimes it can seem a bit overwhelming. What to make out of too many tomatoes or zucchini? How do I prepare rhubarb or kale so my family will actually eat it? How can I buy food when it is cheap and abundant and eat it later when it is hard or impossible to find locally? If you can't attend one of our local classes, check my blog www.BackpackBistro.com for basic recipes and links to help you and your family eat great healthy food and give you the confidence to tackle that bargain you picked up. Check back often, as it is growing and getting better for you. I personally test everything I post there, and I give simple tips for improvising and making each dish your own.
