Week 5, In my kitchen...

My boyfriend and I went shopping recently, so there were a lot of colors from the vegetables and fruits we bought. Mostly, there was a lot of green and orange because I am going through a squash, carrot, sweet potato, and kale obsession. There were some purples and reds, too. I also noticed that grains and legumes have all sorts of different colors: green mung beans, black beans, garbanzos have a weird color, white canellini beans, and rice of all hughes. I love color and color is definitely one of the reasons I chose to buy fruits, vegetables, and other foods.

  1. Sweet potatoes, Butternut squash are among my favorite of winter foods. I cannot recall if Kale makes it through the frost...

    I have a savory roasted butternut squash recipe I have enjoyed for years...Should one have the space, squashes are amongst the least picky of foods to grow!
