You will love these unexpected little peppers. They make a gorgeous appetizer and perfect summer side dish.  You can just blister them and dip them in your favorite sauce.  Or try a couple of mine.  The soy ginger sauce is a winner and our creamy tajin sauce is a super yummy.

This method is one of the more traditional ways to eat artichokes.  They are lovely as appetizer or main course.  They are a super nutritious and luxurious vegetable, really it is flower.  I've also posted a video on Facebook that you can see here.

Anyone who knows me well, knows that Friday night is pizza night.  I am not above doctoring up an Aldi's pizza when I'm crunched for time.  I do love to make the dough from scratch if I have a couple of hours before dinner.  Really, this is so easy, especially with stand mixer which is what I use.  It's only about 15 minutes of hands-on time and then you get to add whatever toppings you can dream up.  You can even make it advance and freeze the dough until you are ready to bake.  This one in the picture is a bbq pork with a hoisin sauce and pickled peppers.  I've done a breakfast pizza, four cheese, meat galore, garden veggie, and hot wing pies before.  Let your imagination run wild.  I use whole wheat flour for the whole thing but you can mix that up to.  Half whole wheat, half white, ok.  All white, yep.  Gluten-free?  You'll have to try that and tell me if it works for you.  I would love to see pics of what creations you come up with and tag us on social media!

These are really only 20 minutes of hands on time but the 10-30 minute rise time makes them perfect for making before you start dinner.  We rarely post recipes of non-farm items but these are too good to keep to ourselves.  This may become a holiday tradition.
