Shredded Collard Salad

We decided to have a dinner party the night before we left for the Azores.  It was a nice send-off for us, and an opportunity to share our garden harvest and fish.  

Collard Kraut-chi

Fermented foods are healthy and delicious.  They’re the original probiotics, with living bacteria that create enzymes and add vitamins.  They also have a zingy flavor that’s addictive.  

Seminole Pumpkin Coconut Curry

Seminole pumpkins are really sweet.  Most of the traditional recipes I’ve found for them are desserts and breads.  I love pumpkin pie, but not so much in May.  

Kohlrabi Stir-Fry

Kohlrabi grows just about anywhere.  It’s related to broccoli and cabbage, but it tolerates a wider range of temperatures.  I’ve read it can withstand 10 degrees, so a mild Florida winter is not much of a challenge.

Avocado Dressing

A tree filled with avocados is a wonderful thing.  Is there such a thing as too many avocados?

Radicchio Caesar Salad

Each summer we visit my husband’s family in Gloucester, Massachusetts.  I always come home with ideas for recipes, like steaming clams in beer, or adding lemon aioli to lobster rolls.
