Preparation Notes

The backyard garden is looking a bit sparse but, thankfully, the farmers' markets still have much to offer. Apples are abundant, the tomatoes are hanging on, and the wide variety of roots and greens are breathtakingly beautiful and delicious.

Prepare the farmers' market fritters. Chop a selection of fresh vegetables: onions, carrots, green beans, cabbage, zucchini, broccoli, chard, and kale all work well. Set these aside. Make a batter with whole wheat flour, an egg, and some water. Add the chopped vegetables and mix gently. Heat a skillet and add a small amount of olive oil. Spoon the mixture into the skillet as if you were making pancakes, when the bottom is brown, flip and cook the other side until crispy.

Steam the edamame.

Slice some crisp organic apples.

Add a handful of cherry tomatoes.
