All organic! When you make the decision to eat seasonal, local and mostly organic you have to think ahead! I used the tomatoes, 2 carrots, and 1 zucchini to make a pasta sauce that I froze. I also shredded 2 of the zucchini and froze them to use in cakes, breads, and other stuff in the winter. I will be freezing some bell peppers and onions the next time I get them. At some point I will have to learn to can things but i'm not quite there yet.
I found an amazing tip it seems. Haven't tried it myself. Grill whole tomatoes until they are slightly charred & mushy, then skin or not and blend. Freeze. Good for a few months when you can't get fresh.B-)Love, Mom
ReplyDeleteI can now say that it works great! Grilling tomatoes makes them taste great. I used the sauce for spanish rice & it was really good. Wish I knew about this when I had a million tomatoes!
