Celebrating Red!

My 6 year old thought dinner last night was a tribute to his favorite color, red. We had food with tomatoes and beets. He wants to know when we’ll celebrate blue, his 4 year old brother’s favorite color.

Friday Menu – Mozzarella, Pesto, and Tomato Bruschetta, Fresh Tomato Sauce over Penne and Sausage, Red Velvet Cupcakes (secret ingredient – beets!)
Farm Share Produce – Basil, Beefsteak Tomatoes, Beets, Juliet Tomatoes,

Here are the links to last night’s recipes.
