We signed up to get a box of organic veggies every week this summer from our local Community Supported Agriculture (CSA).\u00a0 The way it works is that we pay one lump sum of money at the beginning of the summer, and we get a weekly box full of produce until late October.\u00a0 Everything is fresh, organic, and beautiful.\u00a0 Sometimes the CSA website even has recipes for dishes that use the produce.\u00a0 Meanwhile, Mom loves going to her local farmers’ market.\u00a0 She hops on her townie bike and cycles to the market where she buys whatever is growing at the moment.\u00a0 We took a look at our recipe archives and found five recipes that are perfect to use with summer veggies and fruits.\u00a0 Since we have made each one of them, we stand by how delicious they are.<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Five<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Homemade<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

Both Mom and I love making our own pizza.\u00a0 We start from scratch with this dough recipe <\/a>and now we both use this delicious pizza sauce<\/a>.\u00a0 It is made from fresh tomatoes, and there’s just something extract yummy about using a sauce that doesn’t come out of a can.\u00a0 It is fairly simple to make.\u00a0 You can make enough to can it or freeze it.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Benedictine<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

Even though benedictine is an alcoholic beverage, it is also the name of a great dip made of cucumbers.\u00a0 As you know, cucumbers are at their peak right now, and so you should have plenty to make this fresh and delicious dip<\/a>.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Zucchini<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Zucchini is one of those veggies that produces so much so quickly that we have a hard time figuring out what to do with all of it.\u00a0 This zucchini recipe is delicious and a little bit unusual.\u00a0 Instead of making another loaf of zucchini bread (which we both love, by the way) or another zucchini casserole, wow your family with these fritters<\/a> and their dipping sauce.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Peach

Peach Jam<\/p><\/div>\n

If you love peaches the way we do, then you want to enjoy them in the winter, too.\u00a0 My mom made this peach jam<\/a> and loves to eat it on her morning bagel.\u00a0\u00a0 If you would rather have a fruit jam that isn’t peaches, this blackberry jam<\/a> is a great plan B.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Bruschetta\"

Bruschetta<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/h3>\n

We had to include another tomato recipe since we love them so much.\u00a0 Recently, we created a Greek crostini<\/a> that makes the most of\u00a0 summer tomatoes, but this bruschetta<\/a> is its Italian cousin.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

We hope you have been inspired to use some fresh fruits or veggies to make at least one of these recipes.\u00a0 Thanks so much for stopping in.\u00a0 Have a wonderful week-end.<\/h3>\n

<\/h3>\n
