Our basket site is full of awesome volunteers. I don’t think that we can say that enough! Every once in a while someone shows up with goodies. This recipe is from one of our volunteers, Katy.

Zucchini and Carrot Muffins
I used to love to bake, but then my oven started acting weird and unpredictable, and nothing would ever bake right. I pretty much stopped. Now that I have an oven that works, though, I’m getting back to baking. And with my zucchini from Bountiful Baskets (and then zucchini from […]
Pomegranate Apple Crisp
We had a pomegranate tree in our yard at one time that produced about fifty pomegranates a year. I gave many of them to friends and neighbors. I loved sharing them because everyone had a story to tell me about pomegranates. The lady next door fed them to her […]
Mexican Lasagna

Tomato and Spinach Whole Wheat Scones
I wanted to find a way to serve my daughter vegetables in the morning – she sometimes resists eating eggs but I knew she would eat them if I baked them into a scone. This recipe is versatile enough that you could substitute many different types of vegetables or cheeses.

Baked Pineapple
A table, a chair, a bowl of fruit, and a violin; what else does a man need to be happy? -Albert Einstein
Savor Summertime Flavor with Fruit Salsa
Autumn is upon us and the dog days of summer will soon be a distant memory. While I won’t miss the oppressive heat, biting flies and the crowds of people cooling off at the mountain lakes, I will miss the summertime fruit most of all.
