A blog to share great recipes for local food. Thursday, July 17, 2008. If anyone goes to the farmer's markets in Alton, Jerseyville, or Brighton, you have probably seen the Krueger's Orchard tent. Currently they are selling the most delectable pie cherries I have ever seen (yes, so this is the first year I have seen a fresh pie cherry, so what? Anyway, if you decide to take on the effort and bake your own fresh cherry pie, here is what to do! Adapted from Chez Panisse Fruit, by Alice Waters. 3 After 10 m...

A blog to share great recipes for local food. Sunday, October 12, 2008. Ratatouille in the Crock Pot. So many eggplant and zucchini! I have never had ratatouille before, and it was a deliciously pleasant surprise. Gluten and meat free, would be excellent served with pasta, as a pizza topping or in a lasagna. Not to mention how easy it is - just slice and dice and layer in the crock pot, leave it for the day and then eat! Recipe from Recipe Zaar. 2 large onions, cut in half and sliced. 1 t dried oregano.

A blog to share great recipes for local food. Monday, November 24, 2008. This is a recipe I have been making for years, and is perfect for the after-Thanksgiving use of leftover turkey. The vegetable choices in this pie are limitless, and of course you could change the recipe to beef by using beef bouillon in place of chicken. To be honest I would like to get away from using the manufactured bouillon in this recipe, so I should probably work on a way to remove it. Deep Dish Chicken Pot Pie. 2 Add milk al...

A blog to share great recipes for local food. Tuesday, September 9, 2008. As I was looking for an easy chicken soup recipe to use some more of my garden veggies, I came across this one, and I could not resist! It was EXCELLENT. For a vegetarian version use vegetable broth rather than chicken broth, and add a can of rinsed pinto beans or chickpeas for some more protein. You could also add a cup of rice to this soup if you wish. Adapted from Recipe #4574 on Recipe Zaar. 1 medium onion, chopped. I really li...

Now that Christmas is nearly here, maybe you are looking for gift ideas for family or friends. With the economy the way it is, many people are cutting back their usual spending, and/or buying gifts that are practical rather than impractical. I mean, just how many cocoa mug gift sets and bottles of perfumey soap does one person need? Although for the record I cannot get enough of this soap. That I ...
