Mid-July at the Farmer's Market

Andy & I went to the farmer's market yesterday. It was full of juicy and delicious stone fruits. I got some peaches and nectarines. They are so flavorful raw, there is no reason to cook them. So no recipes to share for those.

Squash blossoms caught our eyes. We went home and picked some of our own squash blossoms.

Here's the recipe we used:

Squash Blossoms

Remove the pistol from the center of the closed blossom. I used a knife to slice an opening in the side of the closed blossom.

Mix some goat cheese with garlic and whatever herbs you have on hand. I used oregano and parsley.

Stuff the squash blossoms with the cheese mixture.

Beat an egg and coat the squash blossoms with the beaten egg. Dredge through a mixture of breadcrumbs and shredded parmesan cheese.

Saute in olive oil until browned on both sides. Yum!
