A Farmers Market popped up at the park next to my house this summer and I fell in love. It was fabulous to go every Saturday and pick up fresh fruit, vegetables, breads, etc. Over the weeks my family and I became enamored by all the beautiful produce on display and found ourselves trying food that we haven't often, if ever eaten....food like Swiss Chard. I initially bought Swiss Chard because I wanted to draw it. The colored stalks...the lovely leaves....it was asking to be studied ... View the Post

Green Chile Chicken Enchiladas
I am always on the lookout for simple and easy meals. And these green chile chicken enchiladas are always a hit at our house! You can make them spicier (add more green chiles) or leave them mild as the recipe is written. And they also are great the next day for lunch! The other bonus point about this meal is that they freeze well unbaked so I always make a second dish. It's like another bonus meal for busy nights. For the chicken, I usually buy a rotisserie chicken that will do two ... View the Post
