It’s that time in the summer when all of the local produce is ripe and ready for picking. You
went to the Farmer's Market and could not resist all of the lovely colors of the fresh produce,
you get it home and think……….now what am I going to make with this? I have an easy
recipe for you to enjoy with all of that goodness.
