Recipes to Help You Eat Your Fruits & Veggies + My Recipe For Watermelon Lemonade 
August 7, 2015  by Denisesawyer Leave a Comment 
Are you following me on Facebook or twitter? Then, you may have already heard about my recipe over at Produce Bites.  Produce Bites is a website about all things fruits and veggies.  Specifically, it is a blog about local produce that is grown in Georgia.  But, you don’t have to be a Georgia resident to enjoy the great recipes, tips, and information there.  If you have a love for fresh, grown produce then this is a site you are going to want to bookmark.
Fresh and local produce abounds in the summer months here. You can find your local farmer’s markets packed with yummy treats – your favorites and probably some new varieties you’ve never tried.  Its also a great time to find a road side stand of your local farmer’s bumper crop.  Here in my area it isn’t unusual to find someone with a truckload of fresh corn or watermelons to sell.  While some vegetables thrive in the colder months, the summer months are definitely the time to find abundance. So, don’t miss out! If you haven’t already find out where you closest farmer’s market is and make a visit.
For me, farmer’s markets are more than a place to grab some local produce.  I enjoy taking my kids with me to enjoy the experience.  It is fun to talk about all the things we find there. We think it is a lot of fun to enjoy the sites, the smells, and just a moment to slow down, learn a bit about a farm or a new fruit or veggie we haven’t tried and maybe even share a bite right at the market.  If you haven’t experienced a farmer’s market with your children, I highly recommend you get it on your calendar.
Once you’ve picked out a few local yummies, head back over here to Wholesome Mommy and to Produce Bites for a recipe and some inspiration on how to prepare it.  This week produce bites shared another blogger’s recipe for Brussel Sprouts, Peaches, and Bacon. You can also find my recipe for a refreshing glass of Watermelon Lemonade.  I hope you’ll try it and let me know
