September Seasonal Produce Guide

Late Summer and Early fall leads to heavy loads at the farmers market and thus very long lists in this Seasonal Produce Guide for September. Bear with me because there are so many good recipes to enjoy right now! Fruit is still making a good appearance as are all of the vegetables and you can’t forget the big, busty, ripe tomatoes right now! This time of year I love making a big batch of marinara to store up for the winter. I also serve this One-Pan Farro with Tomatoes, Sausage, and Kale frequently for a quick dinner and a big bowl of apples once again graces our kitchen island.

Though I’ve given you plenty of ideas below for recipes, I also wanted to add a few end of harvest ideas for you. Just pick one of the ingredients listed above and find a way to store it up for a mid-winter celebration. This year try shucking a lot of corn to freeze for winter meals, or make your own jam (this maple vanilla apricot jam is a little taste of heaven), can some peaches in this honey simple syrup (one of my favorite things to enjoy mid winter), or try your hand at pickling – this strawberry pickled radish recipe is fun and I always make at least one batch of these pickled vegetables every year.

I look forward to seeing what all of you are making this harvest season. Don’t forget to tag your seasonal food photos with #eatseasonal!

I’m tasteless celery anon. Read your list I literally love everything you hate. Recipes will say one clove garlic I add a whole gulf I love garlic cooked or raw. The one thing we agree on is rocket it’s bad. Love black coffee. It’s kinda like what you eat influences your taste buds. Like if you don’t eat a lot of dark chocolate and heavy rich surgery foods than a triple dark chocolate cake that I would describe as rich and decadent you’d say too sugary. I just think taste is neat.

oh I love garlic when it’s cooked though! I’ll add insane amounts to what I’m making if the recipe calls for garlic in the first place. my Italian flatmate revealed to me the other day that she’s never had garlic and I was like......but you’re Italian?? turns out the region she’s from doesn’t use it in their cooking.

also I really love dark chocolate, but it’s an acquired taste. I used to be a milk chocolate kind of person, but then gradually went darker and darker. I draw the line at around 72% though which is the highest I’ll go, 80% and up is way too bitter for me. I can’t stand white chocolate though, it’s basically just fatty vanilla sugar, absolutely vile. I have also had the misfortune of being served what I thought was a rich and decadent dark chocolate cake and then it was mostly sugar and I was just...nope. how can you fail at putting enough chocolate in a dark chocolate cake???

to answer your other ask, some of my favourite foods (also prefacing this with: I am gluten intolerant so don’t eat a lot of pasta or bread because the gf versions are expensive):

Bland Category:

fish - fish and chips, boiled fish with boiled potatoes (I’m Icelandic don’t judge me), fried fish with potatoes (there’s a Theme here), fish stew, fish soup, fish gratin (my mum makes a really good one with yellow curry, pineapple, and grated cheese that she got out of a 90s cookbook). Fish is always cod, haddock, salmon, or rainbow trout (aka the ‘cheap salmon’). I detest herring. I’m very suspicious of most fishes that are eaten in Denmark that aren’t cod because in Iceland where I’m from those fishes are generally considered ‘inedible’ fish and are mostly used as animal feed or bait. Why would we eat them when we can have the Good Fish instead? It’s a cultural thing, I’m sure there’s nothing wrong with those fishes. Herring I just have an irrational hatred towards. It’s the Worst fish.

CHEESE and various dairy products. I like everything from ricotta and mozzarella and cream cheese to mature cheddar to goat cheeses, blue cheese, and Parmigiano. Yogurt. Skyr (Icelandic product). Kefir. Buttermilk. Viili (Finnish product). Rahka (another splendid Finnish product). Sour Cream! Cottage Cheese! I like it all.

The Fun Category:

Indian food - I cook a lot of simple curry dishes for myself though I definitely prefer getting it in restaurants or as takeaway as it’s often much better than what I can manage to make. If it’s coconut based it’s the best. The ones I cook for myself are actually more Sri Lankan than Indian and call for coconut.

Mexican food - two of my staple dishes to cook for myself are chili con carne (or chili sin carne, increasingly, these days) and a soup that is likely more Mexican inspired than actual Mexican (the recipe comes from a Swedish cookbook and I modified it). This is also food I’ll go out for.

Thai food - mostly fried rice/rice noodle type of dishes. Coconut based curries are my favourite. I go out for these.

Chinese food - if my dad isn’t cooking it for me, which he rarely is because we haven’t lived in the same country in 20 years, I go out for this. I’ll get rice and then chicken or vegetables in some kind of spicy sauce, depends on the restaurant (the ones I know of specialise in regions and the dishes vary drastically).

Vegetables:

eh this one’s hard because for a lot of vegetables it’s “DEPENDS” and also when I was a child I not only was a really picky eater who refused to eat anything but potatoes, fish, and dairy, but also a lot of fancy veggies weren’t available in my homecountry because it wasn’t grown there and didn’t ship well or whatever. so I’m not used to eating a lot of vegetables to begin with. hence why I like canned peas, because that was the only way we could have them. s lentil a vegetable? I love lentils. I’m not a huge fan of beans but I’ll put them in things like chilis, and I’ll have baked beans if I’m eating a full English/Scottish breakfast out somewhere.

I love tomatoes and mushrooms though. I don’t like most vegetables raw, I prefer them cooked. Roasted or fried. I have been served far too many boiled broccoli/cauliflower/carrot mixes in my life to ever want to eat them again. I

These days for my lunches I’m assembling them out of: bistro salad mix, fried mushrooms and fried bell peppers, fresh tomatoes (cherry, san marzano, or other very flavourful tomato that comes in small sizes), mozzarella if I have it (or avocado if I have it), hard boiled eggs or spicy fried chicken or other lunch meat if I can find it reduced in the supermarket. salt, pepper, oregano, sweet chili sauce. if I don’t have mozarella, eggs or avocado in there I’ll add some mayonnaise to the sweet chili sauce to add some fat. it’s very basic stuff but it’s easy to make, filling, and is made of things that I like.

sometimes I don’t have the energy to make lunch and will either have whatever Indian curry & rice on the menu from the restaurant on campus (it’s not great food but the servings are huge and very extremely affordable) or I’ll just eat gluten free oat biscuits.

Fruit:

see above. the only fruit I’ll eat fresh basically is bananas and I don’t even like bananas that much. They’re just the easiest to eat. I kind of like apples but I can’t just bite into one (it’s a texture thing), I’ll have to have it cut and sliced into small bits. Same with pears. Every now and then I’ll get a craving for some soft and sweet fruit and buy like, 1 peach, or 1 nectarine or 1 mango and then eat half of it and then I’m Done. I’ll sometimes get those little plastic cups with bits of melon and pineapple and grapes and eat the contents of that and be like I have now had A Fruit and be good for like, a month.

I like berries to an extent and usually cooked or baked in something. I love bilberries in pie and if I can find reduced raspberries at the supermarket I’ll turn them into a sauce to put on plain yoghurt. I like orange juice and prefer squeezing it myself, but I will not actually EAT an orange (or another citrus) because once the juice is all gone what you’re left with is the fleshy bits and they’re bitter as hell and a Bad texture.

I grew up with artificial fruit flavours in candy so generally I’ll prefer a cherry flavoured sweet over a real cherry because the real cherry will taste Green a lot of the time and the candy will not, and the candy will have a more intense flavour. The only exception to this is marachino cherries in those fancy jars, I’m happy to eat those in desserts.

But also most of the foods that I cook for myself are just Generic Pan European foods or Random Dish I Just Made Up. I’ll be making lasagne one day not following any authentic Italian recipe (I mean, it just has Things In It That I Like and also a can of tomatoes), and the next I’ll be having grilled cheese toast for dinner and the next I’ll not bother cooking and just have yoghurt and the next day I’ll go look at the reduced vegetables section in Tesco and come away with random stuff that I can put into a soup or stew (always tomato based) that again doesn’t follow any known recipe but rather a ‘these are tasty things I like that happened to be on sale and when combined like this will be tasty to me’ method. Not a huge fan of butternut squash for example and would never buy a whole one to cook but here in the UK it’s often in mix bags with sweet potatoes and onion (all diced), and if those are reduced to idk £0.85 down from two pounds whatever you bet I’m taking that bag and making soup or stew out of it. I’ll add lentils, stock cubes, can or two of tomatoes, whatever other veg I have if I have it, spices, and have rice with it. I’ll usually get dinner for at least 4 days out of it. My staple spices (aside from the sri lankan spice mixes I use) are paprika, cayenne pepper, cumin, chili flakes, oregano, salt, pepper, cinnamon. we have a basil plant but I’d otherwise have dried basil as well. these are all spices that go well with tomato based dishes and/or mexican dishes and are pretty versatile.

#long post #I'm sure nobody cares #maybe except you anon #I talk a lot about buying things reduced #I have done this for a decade because such is the poor student life #and anyway there's usually nothing wrong with it #can you tell I'm procrastinating #almost done with my reading for tomorrow's class though #Anonymous

Warm Lentil Salad with Spinach & Goat Cheese ♥

Oh people, what a salad! Better news still, it's made with common pantry ingredients, you may well have all of them in your fridge right this very second. It's just familiar lentils, the meaty ones that have such a great chew, paired with still-crunchy sautéed vegetables and barely cooked spinach and laced with pockets of melting goat cheese. Warm Lentil Salad is way more than the sum of its parts! Year-Round Kitchen Staple. Great for Meal Prep. Low Fat. High Protein. Naturally Gluten Free. Weight Watchers Friendly & Freestyle Friendly. Vegetarian. All this and dee-lish!

Way way wayyyyyyyy back in 2007, I shared an earlier version of this wonderful Warm Lentil Salad. It was A Veggie Venture's second anniversary – and April Fool's Day, hence the "apparent" recipe, Ooey Gooey Caramel Chocolate Marshmallow Triple Cream Ricotta & Marcarpone Cheesecake in a Brioche Puff Pastry Baklava Crust with a Double Layer of Lemon Curd and Topped with Candied Raspberries and Toffee-Tossed Pecans and a Venetian Honey Hazelnut Butter Sauce. But is anyone surprised that my healthy lentil salad took second seat to all that sugar and butter? Ha! No surprise at all.

So here's the recipe again, because a salad this basic, this healthy, this good, deserves first billing. It's another classic-Alanna recipe, one that's easily adaptable based on what's on hand and what's in season and what you like. The essentials are simply the lentils, (preferably "meaty" lentils such as French green lentils aka lentilles du Puy, a standby in my kitchen) and the vinegar-brightened vegetables. Even the goat cheese – as lovely as it is – is optional if you're counting calories or don't have any on hand.

I usually make a double batch. The first night it makes a lovely bed for roast chicken –– or let's be real, shall we? –– a still-warm rotisserie chicken. After the first night, it's a welcome salad of substance for the supper salad bowls that happen so easily thanks to daily attention to meal prep versus cooking dinner.

One thing I wrote in 2007 and bears repeating, now and often, is this:

To all those who read and inspire what's found in these pixels and who encourage and befriend me, I thank you, I thank you truly. Do I mean you? Yes, YOU, I thank YOU. Who would believe that after thirteen years, I can still be completely obsessed by vegetables? In so many ways, it feels like I'm just getting started!

COMPLIMENTS! "...it was DELICIOUS!" ~ RandiBeth "I've made this lentil salad recipe several times and loved it." ~ Cindy

WARM LENTIL SALAD with SPINACH & GOAT CHEESE

Hands-on time: 25 minutes Time to table: 1 hour Makes 3-1/2 cups

I rarely suggest mise en place (pronounced MEES EN PLOSS, that's French for getting everything together before beginning to cook) but after the lentil water is on the stove, it really helps with the vegetables, allowing them to sauté evenly all at once.

3 cups water 2 teaspoons table salt 3/4 cup (150g) meaty lentils such as green lentils, French lentils or black lentils, rinsed well under running water

1 tablespoon olive oil 1 small onion or large shallot, minced small 1 carrot, diced small 1 rib celery, diced small 1/2 large red pepper, diced small 2 tablespoons good vinegar (white balsamic, malt, sherry, etc.) 3 ounces (85g) fresh spinach, tough stems removed, cut into narrow strips 2 ounces (60g) goat cheese, broken into pieces Salt & pepper to taste

COOK THE LENTILS Bring the water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Stir in the lentils, cover and return to a boil, then reduce the heat to maintain a simmer and let cook until done, about 30 minutes. (It always takes longer than expected to cook lentils, just keep tasting to know when they're done.) Drain off any excess water.

SAUTÉ THE VEGETABLES While the lentils cook, chop and cook the vegetables. First, chop the onion, carrot, celery and red pepper before beginning to cook. Then heat the olive oil until shimmery in a non-stick skillet on MEDIUM, stir in all the vegetables at once, stirring to coat with fat. Let cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp-tender. Don't let the vegetables get too soft, you want some crunch. Stir in the vinegar and let cook for a minute or two, until the vinegar cooks off, then turn off the stove and let the vegetables rest off heat until the lentils are ready.

PULL IT ALL TOGETHER Turn the drained lentils and spinach into the skillet with the vegetables, stir them in, letting the spinach "cook" from no more than the heat of the lentils. Sprinkle the goat cheese across the top of the skillet, then gently stir some of it into the lentils, the more you stir, the more it will disappear into the lentils, I like to let little pockets of creamy coat cheese stay intact. Season to taste and serve at once.

TO PREPARE AHEAD OF TIME So easy! I'd definitely serve this for company so heck yeah, make it ahead of time! Cook the lentils and sauté the vegetables (including the vinegar) a day, even two days, beforehand. Then, just before serving, rewarm the lentil/vegetable mixture in a skillet or even in a tableside serving dish, then stir in the spinach and goat cheese. How easy is that?!

TO SERVE I often serve Warm Lentil Salad as a warm salad with either Fast Roast Chicken (or let's be real ... a rotisserie chicken!) or more often for a vegetarian salad supper, topped with carrots roasted with maple syrup, as in Celebration Salad (Maple-Roasted Carrots with Arugula, Dill, Cranberry Vinaigrette, Pomegranate and Glazed Pecans).

ALANNA'S TIPS & KITCHEN NOTES DOUBLE THE RECIPE? I do, lentil salads are wonderful to have on hand for instantaneous salad bowl-building. OR TRIPLE IT? My favorite lentil salad (so many! but still) is this one, Best-Ever Lentil Salad. It starts with triple the amount of lentils and has a simple but unusual way of seasoning the lentils as they cook. To combine the two recipes, cook the lentils as in the Best-Ever Lentil Salad, but sauté the vegetables/vinegar like Warm Lentil Salad, then at the end, stir in the spinach ribbons and goat cheese. What makes Warm Lentil Salad stand out is how the vegetables get just barely pickle-y, plus, of course, the spinach and goat cheese. FROZEN SPINACH Frozen spinach works great, just be sure to thaw it first and then allow extra time for the spinach to actually cook along with the vegetables –– it'll take longer than fresh spinach. Do know, Warm Lentil Salad with frozen spinach isn't half as pretty but such is the price of convenience, yes? The upside is that you can use a lot more spinach, once I used an entire 8-ounce package. FRESH SPINACH Lots of us keep bags of baby spinach on hand for quick salads. Those tender leaves will cook really quickly once they hit the hot lentils and there's some risk they'll just melt into mush; that means while baby spinach works, it's not my preference for this dish or others that are hot. Then there's the sturdy curly spinach leaves you'll find in the produce sections, it will take longer to "cook" from just the hot lentils and may end up tasting a little raw to some tastes. For a few years now, I've been using one-pound bags of fresh spinach that falls somewhere in between the two, tender enough for salads, sturdy enough for cooking. We go through a bag or two a month, usually $4 at St. Louis' local supermarket Schnucks and $3 at Walmart. DO KNOW Don't feel disappointed when the goat cheese melts into the warm lentils because it still tastes great, adds an unexpected richness. The inspiring recipe came from a magazine and the magazine photo showed nice big chunks of goat cheese. &^%$ food stylists, some times! LOW CARB, REALLY? I know we don't really think of lentils as low in carbs but I calculate net carbs as Carbs - Fiber. And Warm Lentil Salad has a lot of fiber, so the Net Carbs are just 8 grams per half cup. Cool, yes? SERVING SIZE That said, I've done the nutrition calculations based on a half-cup serving, this allows apples-to-apples comparisons with my other lentil salad recipes (and many other salads as well). To my mind, a half cup of Warm Lentil Salad is great for a side salad. For a main dish salad, I'd go with a whole cup (topped with something else) and so then, the NetCarbs would be 16 and no, wouldn't qualify as "low carb".

NUTRITION INFORMATION Per Half Cup: 130 Calories; 4g Tot Fat; 2g Sat Fat; 3mg Cholesterol; 53mg Sodium; 16g Carb; 8g Fiber; 2g Sugar; 8g Protein. WEIGHT WATCHERS WW Old Points 2, WW PointsPlus 3, WW SmartPoints 4, WW Freestyle 1.5 CALORIE COUNTERS 100-calorie serving = 1/3 cup (6g protein).
