Thrifty Thursday: Seasonal Selections

Did you miss me yesterday?  No time to get to the keys and today is needing to be short as well.

I'm working on getting into a rhythm of eating seasonal produce to keep our budget low for produce. I found this helpful chart that lists which foods are in season during each month.  This helps me to plan a weekly menu around some of those items as well as think through what I should be stocking up on to freeze or what to avoid for another time of year.

Also, now that I know which foods are out of season and, therefore, don't likely have their optimal taste, I can avoid wasting our precious pennies.

Hope this helps you as well! 

I may have shared this recipe for Cheesy Cauliflower Sauce before because it's a favorite that I make almost weekly.  But, since cauliflower is in season right now I thought I'd be sure you've got this recipe in your file. :)  We use it over vegetables, beans, and salads.
