Ten seasonal summer recipes, perfect for using that Farmer's Market stash! Make the most of those fruits and veggies with these easy recipes.
I don't know about you, but when summer produce is in full swing it's hard to restrain myself! When visiting a farmer's market (or even my regular grocery store) this time of year, everything looks so appealing. I end up with way more produce than we can use before it goes bad.
These recipes are the perfect answer to that predicament. From sweet to savory, these are some of the best ways to use up those farmer's market fruits and veggies. And if you are interested in jams and jellies, here's a post on that. Happy summer!

Thought for the day:
Where can I go from your Spirit?
    Where can I flee from your presence?
If I go up to the heavens, you are there;
    if I make my bed in the depths, you are there.
If I rise on the wings of the dawn,
    if I settle on the far side of the sea,
even there your hand will guide me,
    your right hand will hold me fast.
Psalm 139:7-10
