where i gather my food

spent the day with my daughter, gathering food at the farmers market, at our local college. I'm always so excited about what the gardeners bring : such a cool selection of veges and fruit. We're blessed here, in maui...food can be grown all year long...upcountry. The climate is cool...for winter type crops and sunny for those luscious tomatoes. I'm so pleased with what I came home with. Then it was off to whole foods, for grains, legumes, fresh almond butter and apple juice...my daughter's favorite (the one in the large glass jug)

local apple bananas...starfruit...tomatoes...a Filipino vegetable that tastes so good in a stir fry and asparagus
 
kale...celery...papaya...eggplant...lemons...beets


 
this weeks menu: quinoa and grilled veges...lentil and vege tacos...harvest soup: kale, beets and potatoes...mixed chopped salad: kale, beet greens, parsley, basil w/tomatoes and carrots
and for dessert........fruit salad and mint

here's what's for lunch............................................................yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!

peace and love.......kelly
