"Farm Boy Five"

We have nearly accepted that our vegetable garden is simply not going to happen this year, so we're just going to teach our son to LOOK like a farmer....
Today I'm going to share the recipes to all the food on our table this week, not just the recipes I created. Enjoy!

Springtime Breakfast Muesli

yThis muesli is my new favorite warm-weather breakfast. It requires soaking overnight, which is difficult for me to remember, but everything else about it is super easy. It is from Heidi Swanson's Super Natural Every Day, and I am not so patiently waiting for Amazon to send me my copy- this recipe can be found in the "look inside" feature.
The muesli this week is served with rhubarb sauce. Yum! It is so simple to make, it's just 4 Cups sliced rhubarb, 1 Cup sugar, 4 Tbs butter brought to a boil and simmered until sauce-like (about 10 min). This sauce is good on everything though, so make extra.

Non-Processed Macaroni Salad

My husband grew up in the land of processed picnic foods drenched in mayonnaise and I grew up rather ignorant of them, so it is a constant struggle in our house for me to recreate these foods in a way that big Fred can tolerate. You can find the recipe to my version here.

Sweet Potato Falafels

That's right, I said "sweet potato falafels". They are SO GOOD! This is a recipe I found on Heidi Swanson's blog 101 Cookbooks. Even though I have 0 Heidi Swanson cookbooks, I still managed to eat from her repertoire this week. We enjoyed our falafel with garlicky hummus and cucumber slices on a pita (for Fred) or tortilla (for me, darn yeasted pitas!).

Hope your week is as tasty as ours!
