>My garden is at an in between phase right now, so I’m not producing much. I started going to the farmer’s market again, until mine picks up. Here’s a few recipes I made from farmer’s market goodies.
2 cups sugar
1 cup oil
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 cups zucchini — grated
3 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup pineapple — crushed
1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional)
1/2 cup maraschino cherries (optional)
Beat eggs, sugar, oil, and vanilla. Add zucchini, flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, pineapples, nuts, and cherries. Pour into two greased 5 x 9 inch loaf pans or 24 muffin cups.
Bake at 325 degrees for about 1 hour for loaves, or 20 minutes for muffins. (24 Servings)
Makes: 2 loaves or 24 muffins
Black-Eyed Peas over Pasta (serves 4)
5 slices bacon, chopped and cooked until crisp ( set aside)
1 yellow onion
1 bell pepper
1 jalapeno/serrano (optional)
1 italian sausage ( I use hot)
around 2 cups diced tomatoes
8 oz egg noodles
5-10 diced mushrooms
1-2 cups fresh black-eyed peas ( to your liking)
cook onion, peppers, sausage until sausage cooked through and veggies soft

bring to a boil and cook until peas are soft (30 mins to an hour)

put sprinkled bacon and basil on top
(Forgot to mention … add salt and pepper as your cooking to taste)
