Summer Time Produce

The asparagus here has been to die for. I like the pencil thin ones
sauted in a bit of olive oil butter mixture tossed with Mrs Dash tomato
basil and garlic and some sliced pickled garlic( I put cloves in white
vinegar and slice paper thin). YUM!!!!!! My best friend hated asparagus
until she tried mine and now she's buying it!!

Don't know 'bout you... but I just got back from the local farmer's
market and was bugged eyed at the fabulous fruits and veggies!

Summer peak is the best!

Other than the corn, beets, peas and potatoes, I trucked home far
more food that I could possibly eat!... But it all looked so good.

A few years back I made a list of the lower carb fruits and
veggies... and I thought I'd repost it here.

alfalfa sprouts
arugula
artichoke
artichoke hearts
bamboo shoots
bean sprouts
chard
collard greens
dandelion greens
eggplant
hearts of palm
kale
kohlrabi
leeks
onion
rhubarb
sauerkraut
scallions
snow peas
spaghetti squash

broccoli rabe
brussel sprouts
cabbage

celery
chicory
chives
cucumber
daikon
endive
escarole
fennel
lettuce
mushrooms

And in moderation these fruits are also lower carb:

Hope you're having a joyous summer!
