Garden Bounty

Despite the occasional splashes of fall color on the leaves and the smell of fall in the evening air, the past few days have been both wet and quite warm. It's like a last-blast of summer. That warmth means that my tomato and squash plants just can't stop themselves from producing.

The resulting bounty will grace the supper table every day this week. I plan my cooking in advance and I try to make enough so that I can have leftovers for lunch the next day. This week's menu features pesto pasta with grilled chicken, tomatoes, and roasted squash; gorgonzola pasta with tomatoes and spinach; tomato-feta salad and spaghetti squash; and mushroom chicken with tomato salad.

I'm sensing a theme.
