In Simply Me, I will share my experiences as I cook through all the recipes in Simply in Season. Through this process I hope to discover simple ways of preparing local, healthy foods and learn more about nutrition, sustainability, and how our eating choices impact the world.
The introduction to this recipe from Simply in Season states that it’s “inspired by peanut stews served in West Africa.” Indeed, I have been to West and East Africa, and in both areas of the continent I’ve been inspired by the (read full article)

Have you ever thought a recipe was one thing at first glance, and then when you read it a few times all of a sudden you realize it wasn’t what you thought it was? For some reason when I first glanced at this recipe, I thought it was for pumpkin (read full article)

I wish I had tried this recipe before Thanksgiving–it would have been a perfect turkey day side dish. Oh well, it also made a nice Sunday afternoon lunch. I haven’t used orzo before, so this was a new experience. I rather like how it seem (read full article)

Have you ever had to go to a party or “bring a dish to pass” event and brought chips and dip? Or something from the deli and just put it in your own bowl hoping no one would notice the telltale taste of preservatives or whatever it is the (read full article)

Well folks, believe it or not, this recipe is NOT from Simply in Season. I’m taking a break from my regularly scheduled cookbook in order to provide an original recipe to my blogger friend, FitJerk. “I have a few people I work with that (read full article)
Ok folks, this is heavily adapted from Simply in Season. I started with a 3 lb stewing chicken, the one left from last week’s farm pickup. At about 7 AM this morning I put it, along with 9 cups of water, an onion cut in wedges, 2 peeled whole c (read full article)
I have almost finished with all the autumn recipes in Simply in Season. I had already planned to have guest bloggers review the cranberry recipes, but another fruit has become just as problematic: the persimmon. In the past month or so various persim (read full article)
This was my second pear custard contribution to Thanksgiving, and I have to say that I preferred it over the other one from Simply in Season. I really liked the creamy texture contrasted with the underripe pears (which was an accident since that̵ (read full article)
This is one of the two “pear custard” desserts that I made for Thanksgiving. My family has always done Thanksgiving potluck style, and I volunteered to make desserts because that is the one category in Simply in Season that I’m behi (read full article)
While the recipe in Simply in Season merely calls for a 3 pound whole chicken, I knew that this was the perfect recipe for a stewing chicken. Stewing chickens are usually tough old birds and are very inexpensive, even when they are the organic free r (read full article)
Call me a hedonist, but I like just about any soup with the word “bisque” in the title. This version from Simply in Season gets its creaminess from nonfat plain yogurt, so I’ll put this in the healthy category. Cook the butternut o (read full article)
A special thanks to guest blogger Stefany at Proceed with Caution for reviewing the Oat Bran Cranberry Pancakes recipe for me! As you might recall, I’m allergic to cranberries so I’ve asked fellow foodie bloggers to help me out by reviewi (read full article)
This is another one of those great clean-out-the frig recipes. Very simple. Take 6-8 cups of root vegetables (tonight I used black winter radish, turnips, and sweet potato). Hint: At least one should be sweet (like a sweet potato or carrot). Slice in (read full article)
For some reason I’ve been on a ginger kick. I even bought some mints the other day that have ginger in them. So I thought I’d give this recipe from Simply in Season a try. In an ovenproof, microwavable casserole dish, combine 1/4 C brown (read full article)
I was a little nervous to make this recipe, because DH and his family have this “thing” against mushy bread. My mother in law makes a creamed corn dish with bread in it and that is the only thing they like with that sort of texture. Peel (read full article)
From time to time, people tell me that they love the Simply in Season cookbook, but they don’t know what to make from it. Some of the recipes scare them, so they are glad that I’m doing this project so they can see how the dish turns out. (read full article)
