I had a hard time coming up with recipes I wanted to make this week. Said and done, I’m trying some new recipes and going back to some favorites. Here are some meals with local ingredients that I’ve come up with for the week.

Pizza

I am putting this under Do Ahead Prep because I will roast the beets ahead of time. The recipe calls for slicing thin raw beets, but I’m concerned they won’t cook enough and would rather place roasted beets on the tart. I’m thinking of serving these like mini pizzas with salad on the side.
Regular Preparation (in about an hour)
