July Menu

July 12, 2019 by Linda Watson Leave a Comment

July Menu

Local food peaks in July, making menus easy. Much of what you’ll find is best eaten raw and simple. Give cherry tomatoes and blueberries a quick rinse. Slice cucumbers and larger tomatoes for salads and sandwiches. Go wild and sprinkle salt on a wedge of cantaloupe.

Enjoy set-and-forget main dishes like this month’s Cuban Black Beans by using a slow cooker or electric pressure cooker. It’s a simple and forgiving recipe on the stove too.
