Gardening produces many fruit and vegetables which are great eaten simply by themselves or put together in recipes. I will share some of my favorites that I have collected from family, friends, and other sources. Since this is not a cooking blog, the recipes have not been tried in a specialized test kitchen. Take the recipes, tweak the ingredients, and you will have your own delicious dish or it might be a science experiment that does not turn out exactly as planned! I have realized that after cooking and baking over many years that I really do enjoy serving food that I have grown and prepared. It is a joy to bless others in this way.
