June Seasonal Eating Grocery List and Recipe

15786611_m

The combination of my ever decreasing stamina (thanks bubs) and my concrete commitment to eating healthy for 2 has made my grocery store visits a much more organized task than in the past. I have found over the last 5 months of eating by the Seasonal Produce Chart that fresh foods can be fun and affordable if bought in season and when they are in bulk. It also allows me to get out of my monotonous snack and recipe purchases and to try something new every month. From now on I will be posting an article every month with the best seasonal fruits and vegetables to buy and some recipes to go with them. Please let me know if I am leaving out any of your favorites!
