This week our farmstand is well stocked with beautiful produce! We have heirloom tomatoes, 5 varieties of summer squash, 3 varieties of cucumbers, onions, green beans, cabbage, leeks, kale, basil, potatoes, and eggplant.
Thursday we returned from the Snohomish Farmers Market with some unsold produce (basil, tomatoes, eggplant) and a beautiful loaf of Sea-Salt Focaccia bread from The Cottage Bakery. We made a simple basil pesto (with just basil, olive oil and Parmasan cheese). We sliced the focaccia, smeared it with pesto, topped it with sliced tomato, grilled eggplant slices and fresh mozzarella. Honestly, it was the most delicious sandwich we have ever eaten!
And for one of the best and simplest soups you will ever taste – try our leek and potato soup recipe.
