What we ate: August

You know the drill.  Good eats from August.  No special diet, just real food, simple, and really good.  This month in the garden we had zucchini, tomatoes, a few cucumbers, peppers, a little broccoli, onions, and figs.  Hope this gives you some ideas.  Anything yummy cooking in your kitchen lately?  Share in the comments below.

 Ham leftover from church, scalloped potatoes, and roasted asparagus

 This was the end of the week when food was really low.  It was kind of made up.  Some leftover rice, grass-fed beef, peppers and tomatoes from the garden, eggplant and garlic.  

 Grilled chicken, figs from the yard wrapped in bacon and zucchini from the garden.  

 Chicken piccata, sauteed zucchini (garden), and tomato and cucumber salad (garden)

 Baked fish with lemons, carrots and green beans, and fruit smoothies with chia seeds

 BLT on sourdough bread, roasted okra (farmer's market), and watermelon (farmer's market)

 Filets, mashed potatoes, and broccoli (garden) with cheese sauce
