weekend cooking results

Aaaand the results are in.

I figured I was chained to the stove for approximately 12 hours this weekend (like any good little wife should be), slaving away over my farmers markets goodies, until my freezers screamed no more!


Only a few items went unscathed (zucchini, apples, hungarian peppers and paw paws) and the was turned into some farm fresh eats that we can enjoy this winter.

• 12 pints stewed tomatoes (too lazy/not enough herbs to make spaghetti sauce)
• 5 1/2 pints roasted roma tomatoes
• 9 pints pumpkin puree
• 2 pints roasted bell peppers
• 6 pints pumpkin butter
• 6.5 pints almond butter (not a farmers market find, but still...)
• 4 loaves bread (2 pumpkin, 2 bananna - both yeast breads, not sweet)
• 5 bags green beans
• 2 bags acorn squash
• 2 bags butternut squash
• 2 bags spaghetti squash (overcooked spaghetti squash, hopefully it is still good!)
• 3 bags kale

Believe it or not, if I could have kept going, I would have.

All in all though, it was a very productive weekend in the kitchen! :)
