Rich Sauce with White Eggplant & Herbs

Rich Sauce with White Eggplant & Herbs by Amos Miller

Eggplant has nothing to do with eggs - unless you dip and bread them. This sauce is a knockout! We grow 'Casper', an heirloom small, long white eggplant. It's mild in flavor and perfectly suited to thick, rich vegetable sauces. When cut into dime-to-quarter-sized disks, I have found Casper to be a perfect addition to other late…

Goulash Soup!

Goulash Soup! by Salad Foodie

Goulash: A mixture of many different elements; a hodgepodge. That description fits this soup to a T .... as in TASTY! Just the week's leftovers married in a flavorful seasoned broth. One of my humblest yet surprisingly successful mishmashes, and we haven't even tasted it the second day! Use my ingredients below as a base, but sub…

Cream of Vegetable Soup

Cream of Vegetable Soup by Salad Foodie

Cauliflower, potatoes, carrots, onions and garlic predominate, but you can rifle through the veggie bin and sub out others like spinach, zucchini, parsnips, etc. and you can increase or decrease the ratios of vegetables to your preference. About 9 cups of raw vegetables are needed. When…

Sugar Pumpkin Curry Cream Soup

Sugar Pumpkin Curry Cream Soup by Amos Miller

We grow sugar pumpkins and after the harvest, I always break them down and puree them and pop them into the freezer for a long Winter's use. In addition to pies (of course), tarts, cookies, breads, custard and sauce - I love sugar pumpkin soup. As you can imagine, this member of the squash family is somewhat sweeter, has fewer seeds…

Skillet Zucchini with Tomatoes and Pepperoni by Salad Foodie

At the height of zucchini harvest there's no such thing as too many recipes to use it up. This is a simple way to prepare it that amps up the bland flavor of zucchini with spicy pepperoni. You'll think you're in pizza heaven whether you serve this as a main dish or side.
