I would think there might be many opportunities in the country roadsides near you.

All these tips come in handy :) The vacuum sealer intrigues me, keeping things fresh is difficult at best when there's only two of us. <br /><br />I'm so grateful spring is here, sort of. Eating seasonally is the only way to go, and you're right, it keeps life interesting. And delicious! <br /><br />My favorite spring food? Asparagus, asparagus, asparagus. I've never foraged for any foods, but it sounds like I need to give it a chance this year. <br /><br />Thanks for a great post, and welcome back!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06405546452488833090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690050151191227914.post-37280953861613449222012-11-30T19:16:44.448-06:002012-11-30T19:16:44.448-06:00Thanks Kat!

He also likes to mix squash and zucchini with olive oil, Itl spices, another spice that i forget right now and grill them. They are good, he is proud that he can get me to eat veggies that way!<br /> As for zucchini I like to put it in egg white omelettes with other veggies or make Zucchini Lasagna. Both are a little more heavy and I am sure not as healthy as your above suggestions.

I'll definitely give that a try. I have some Cranberry Beans I grew last year that are just waiting for an excuse to be cooked as well as some salt cured ham that would go perfectly in that dish. <br /><br />I am a green smoothie fan! I was pretty in to them when I first got my Vitamix blender. They can be delicious, but they can also be pungent and not so tasty. :) Mostly, the ones I enjoy are greens blended with fruits. It's amazing how good they can be! I definitely encourage you to give them a try and if you're interested, "Green Smoothie Revolution" by Victoria Boutenko is a great resource. They also have a website: http://greensmoothierevolution.com/ You'll have to let me know what you think if you take the plunge.Alyssahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09463697046143816866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690050151191227914.post-67791099024869077222012-07-16T07:34:58.080-05:002012-07-16T07:34:58.080-05:00Great ideas!

I've got some rainbow chard I'll be using this week so I may mix and match some of the above ideas. My favorite go-to for greens is to pair them with a legume (Greens 'n Beans!) like cannolini or lentils. I've got a chef friend that has talked about kale in green smoothies. I'm skeptical of the whole green smothie thing. Thanks for sharing these! :)Shady Characterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17522626839086685428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690050151191227914.post-5893181956643096592012-07-10T14:26:39.207-05:002012-07-10T14:26:39.207-05:00Alyssa, you are my most favorite blogger ever :) I...Alyssa, you are my most favorite blogger ever :) I mean it!
