Sometimes all you need is a few items for an array of different meal options. Some of these Farmers Market staples help me create or add flavor to a variety of meals. Here are a few of my favorites:
- Good Quality Pasta
- Spinach
- Local Honey
- Fresh Made Marinara Sauce
- Pesto
- Eggs
Meals made using them:
Mediterranean Egg Scramble:
Scramble 2-3 eggs, add sauce, and top with pesto.
Spinach Egg Scramble:
Saute spinach and then scramble in two eggs.
Pesto Pasta:
Make pasta as farmer markets label direct and top with a dollop of pesto.
Pair with sauteed spinach.
Pesto and Marinara Pasta:
Make pasta as farmer markets label direct and warm marinara sauce. Add sauce to pasta and top with a dollop of pesto.
Pair with grilled sauteed spinach.
Honey
Sometimes I get a sweet tooth and nothing like a little of nature’s local honey to help cure it. You can add it to teas, yogurts, crackers, or homemade dressing recipes.
