Ideas to get more veggies in??

I live in the heart of yuppie suburbia - and far enough from farmers markets to make it prohibitive to go regularly.

They used to have a local one during Summer months at our township building but I think the person who organized it quit and we haven't had one for the past couple years.... :sadblinky

Then ..... next time you find it fresh, cut it in cubes, boil it for 2 or 3 minutes, drain and freeze it!
This is the one I buy

I made a great lasagna for lunches this week. It has spinach mixed in with the beef and eggplant for noodles. You can add tons of diff veggies in lasagnas.

Would you mind sharing that recipe???

Great idea! The day after Halloween they're begging to get rid of all the pumpkins they have!


Thanks!

Last 10 you do not want jack-o-lantern pumpkins as they are a gord and have more water and are tougher. you want sugar pumpkins or pie pumpkins for roasting or cooking.

Interesting...I never knew there was a difference. Then again, I always thought the pumpkin pie pumpkins had an aluminum outer skin...
