Hide and seek was its name. Oh ready or not, hear I come, Gee that used to be such fun. "

TODAY'S RECIPE & NUTRITION TIP! ​
​
Curried Coconut Butternut Squash Soup courtesy of Maryland Farmers Markets "Some call this #sweaterweather, we call it soup weather! This curried coconut butternut squash soup checks all the boxes. Creamy (yet creamless!), comforting, gently spiced, and easy to make, this vegan soup   will keep you warm and cozy as the temperatures drop."

"Butternut squash is a type of winter squash native to the Americas. Technically a fruit, it has long been utilized as a complete source of vegan protein by native populations when also paired with corn and beans. Together, the three are referred to as "The Three Sisters" and are a common sight in autumn.   Butternut squash makes a great addition to many sweet and savory dishes. It is a potent source of vitamin A and other nutrients. Even though it is a high-carbohydrate food, it has a low glycemic index, making it a smart addition to most healthy meal plans. ~ Butternut Squash Nutrition Facts and Health Benefits

Well, the sun's not so hot in the sky today, and you know I can see summertime slipping on away.

TODAY'S RECIPE & NUTRITION TIP! 
Sweet Potato Hash - With Fall's cooler weather upon us, brisk mornings and chilly nights, there’s a definite need for hearty, comfort meals that taste as though they took a very long time to cook (but didn’t!). This warming one-dish hash is made in a skillet and brings that comfort to the table from start to finish in under 45 minutes. It’s loaded with heady aromas that come from the smokiness of the link sausage to the sweet potatoes that are slightly caramelized with a roasted flavor. Find the ingredients for this Sweet Potato hash at the market this Wednesday!

"Sweet potatoes are sweet, starchy root vegetables that are grown worldwide. They come in a variety of sizes and colors — including orange, white, and purple — and are rich in vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and fiber.
Not to mention, they provide a number of health benefits and are easy to add to your diet." Here are 6 surprising health benefits of sweet potatoes from Healthline.com.

​​Be sure to visit all of our amazing farmers and producers as listed above, and cool your core with a Jessica's Snowball while you're at the Market this Wednesday!
