Joy's Organic Kitchen

I have often been asked how I prepare healthy food on a daily basis. This is my way to show you my daily life with food: shopping at the Hollywood Farmers Market; turning beautiful produce into delicious feasts; buying, storing and cooking food within the confines of my busy life; and doing it all on a budget. I hope you will get some ideas that will fit into your life; and an expanded way of looking at food and its connection with your body, your health, your community and the planet.

Sunday shopping

It was a quiet morning at the Hollywood Farmers Market. Fewer shoppers, fewer farmers, and no St. Benoit Yogurt stand.

We said hi to our favorite farmers and were back on the road by 8:15 a.m.

This is what we bought:
cherry tomatoes
cilantro
collards
7 tangerines
6 grapefruit
carrots
2 anjou pears
3 bosc pears
2 summerfield apples
baby rutabagas with greens
2 jars of almond butter
1 dozen eggs
pistachios

It's the lack of yogurt that is causing sadness. I am trying to maintain my optimism for next week. In the meantime, yes, rutabagas will be my happy food.
