red or green?: it's back! summerfest 2013

so happy to announce the return of "summerfest", a collaboration between food network and a group of food bloggers. a specific summer fruit or vegetable is selected each week, and food network chefs and bloggers each contribute a recipe featuring the item. the recipes are shared on foodnetwork.com and all of the blogs so readers have a plethora of options to use up all the delicious summer produce.

this year's schedule is as follows:
June:

19: Berries

26: Peas

July:

3: Corn

10: Tomatoes

17: Watermelon

24: Cucumbers

31: Peaches

August:

7: Eggplant

14: Avocados

21: Peppers

28: Figs

September:

4: Beets

11: Grapes

18: Potatoes

wanna participate? share your favorite recipe in the comments section of my posts...or link to your blog if you have one. you can do this on all the other participating blogs too. c'mon, the more ideas the better. this is the time to raid the farmers' market, or your csa, or your overflowing garden and overindulge in fresh, local organic or sustainably grown summer produce. on second thought, is it possible to overindulge in this area?

happy summer everyone!

my best,

diane
