Rootabaga – September 13, 2020

How is it the middle of September already? The weather is certainly starting to feel like it, but after what seems like the shorter summer ever, I can’t say I’m ready to make the transition into fall just yet. One great thing about this time of year is the abundance of local fruit and vegetables available! This week’s subscription includes eggplant a beautiful purple skinned late summer vegetable that is high in fibre and antioxidants. I always look forward to eggplant season so I can indulge in some homemade greek moussaka, so tasty! I made a vegetarian version of this dish about a week ago and it was delicious, here’s the recipe.
