Asian Noodle Salad With Miso Dressing

June 19, 2015 By Garden Fresh Foodie

Miso Cucumber Noodle Salad Topped With Siracha

This salad is light and refreshing, perfect for summer. It’s great cold, so a perfect do-ahead dish. If you don’t have a Spiral Vegetable Slicer you should get one! It’s one the healthiest ways to eat “pasta”, as you can turn so many veggies into instant noodles.  Veggie “noodles” are much hight in antioxidants, and high…

Health Benefits of Chives

April 23, 2015 By Garden Fresh Foodie

Garden Fresh chives

Chives-the first thing to pop up in my garden. Chives shout-“Yeah It’s Finally Spring!!!!!” and, in our part of the country, that shout couldn’t come soon enough!

Garden Fresh Tofu Scramble

Italian Tofu Scramble On Top of Toast

This dish is a nice alternative to cholesterol-rich eggs. Tofu scrambles give the same flavor and consistency of scrambled eggs, but without the cholesterol or fat.  Tofu is a great source of plant-based protein, as well as being a great source of calcium.  It has been shown that by decreasing your consumption of animal-based protein,…

Sesame Eggplant Salsa

October 11, 2014 By Garden Fresh Foodie

Sesame Eggplant Dip

Getting ready for a weekend celebration or the big game Sunday? This is a great recipe that uses in-season eggplant and makes your mouth sing! We used scallions and tomatoes from the garden, along with fresh local garlic, ginger (unfortunately we can’t get that locally) and gluten free soy sauce. The longest part of this…
