Farmers Market Challenge: It’s All About the List

By

Seven weeks into the Farmer’s Market Challenge, we’d fallen into an easy and familiar routine; call up the list of vendors on the market’s website on Wednesday evening and craft a meal and shopping plan for the coming week.

It was time to shake things up a bit.

Katie had a meeting with one of her instructors at Douglas College and late Thursday afternoon was the best available time. But that’s Market Time! she exclaimed.

Not to worry, I replied. I’ll do it.

After all, I do the cooking, and the bulk of the grocery shopping.

Usually that means checking the fridge and pantry to get an idea of what’s running low, scanning the supermarket flyers for the week’s specials, then making a list. Meal planning is done on the fly, based on those specials, cravings, whims.

It’s not the best way to do things. It’s inefficient; sometimes we buy too much, or items we bought get left uneaten as those cravings subside.

The times we did take the time to formulate a plan meant fewer trips to the grocery store, less overripe fruit and vegetables in the crispers, more space in the freezer.

The Farmer’s Market Challenge brought discipline back to our food consumption, reduced my supermarket stress. It brought a little adventure as we explored new produce options. And we’ve been eating healthier, more flavourful meals.

So flying solo at Thursday’s market wasn’t intimidating at all.

Since taking on the Challenge we’ve devised some method to our madness. Each week’s list has a column for “Must Haves” and another for “Maybes” according to their availability and room in our $40 budget. We also set out to construct at least one “Market Meal,” with the bulk of its components from the market.

It’s efficient, predictable, with room for spontaneity.

Since our first bite of albacore tuna loin from Wild West Coast Seafood, we knew wanted it again; so that was going to be our most expensive acquisition and the centrepiece for one of our TWO planned market meals.

The other would be a grilled pizza topped with fresh arugula, plum tomatoes, basil and roasted garlic.

cutting pizza

From there, we needed to replenish our salad spinner with greens and the vegetable crisper with onions and cucumbers. Anything left over would be up to my discretion.

With a couple of tokens still knocking together in my pocket, I eyed the microgreens, but settled for a bunch of purslane. Since discovering the tender succulent we’ve grown to appreciate the flavourful crunch its deep green stalks bring to salads and sandwiches. And it’s half the price of the microgreens.

That left just enough for a single artichoke, a new arrival to the season and a new challenge for my grill skills.

This week’s haul:

From Wild West Coast Seafoods:

  • Tuna loin $15

From Zaklan Heritage Farms:

  • Garlic $2
  • Mustard greens, purslane $5
  • Arugula $4
  • 4 plum tomatoes $1.70
  • Basil $1

From Bose & Sons Family Farm:

  • Red lettuce $2

From Ossome Acres:

  • Kale $3
  • Artichoke $2

From Ripple Creek:

  • 2 cucumbers $2.50
  • 3 spanish onions $3

Something we learned this week: The Spanish onions’ long green crunchy stalks that filled three plastic containers when we first bought them have been cut short. Not as a way for the farmers to get us to buy their onions more frequently; the summer’s heat just starts drying them up and making them tough.

 

Farmers Market Challenge: Best Laid Plans

By

Going into market day, I try to plan as much as possible. I research the website, price out as much as I can, and plan our meals and shopping list accordingly. We only have $40 to spend, I want to make sure we’re spending it wisely, getting everything we need, and hopefully a couple extras on the list too.

But sometimes, plans just don’t go according to plan.

Because the products at the farmers’ market are so reliant on weather and crops, you’re not guaranteed the same stuff week in and week out. What you loved last week may not be there the next week. Something new may be stacking those tables instead – throwing your plan completely off kilter.

And that’s the adventure of it.

For us, purslane was the culprit this week.

It wasn’t on my list, and before last Thursday, it wasn’t even in my vocabulary. But when I was under the Zaklan Heritage Farm tent picking up my 2 for $5 greens, and saw those pretty leaves of purslane, I asked owner Gemma McNeil for details.

It’s a fast-growing succulent that’s super high in Omega-3 fatty acids and contains vitamin A, vitamin B, vitamin C, magnesium, calcium, potassium and iron. It’s grown all over the world, and adds a lemony flavour to your salads.

She had me at Omega-3.

FM5purslane
Purslane

You know how sometimes when you discover something you’ve never heard of before, suddenly you’re hearing about it everywhere? This weekend my son and I went into the valley for a family birthday party. I packed along a lunch salad, and when my mom saw the purslane atop all the greens, she told me the old farm garden was full of it.

She had never tasted it until she took a bite of my salad. She liked it!

A few hours later we were in Chilliwack, and my great nephew’s grandma was giving me a bag full of freshly picked zucchini, cucumber, carrots, and pears (I don’t turn my nose up at free food). She told me she’d normally have beans ready to go too, but they got sacrificed in her effort to blow out the “annoying” purslane.

Yes, folks, although super healthy, and, in my opinion, super tasty, many farmers look at it more as a weed than a crop. Lucky for us, though, a few vendors at Royal City Farmers’ Market treat it as the latter.

Yet another market-great discovery.

This week’s loot:

  • 4 red peppers: $5.90
  • 1 zucchini: $1
  • 1 lb. green beans: $3
  • 1 bag each of kale and pizzo mustard greens: 2 for $5
  • 1 head red-leaf lettuce: $3
  • 1 oz. basil: $1
  • 1 bunch purslane: $2
  • 1 bunch cilantro: $2
  • 2 cucumbers: $2.40
  • 1 bunch Italian onions: $2.70
  • 3 corn on the cobs: $3
  • 1 handful each of mint and rosemary: free
  • 1 bag tortilla chips: $3
  • 1 container pico de gallo: $5
This week’s greens: pizzo, purslane, kale, and red-leaf lettuce.
This week’s greens: pizzo, purslane, kale, and red-leaf lettuce.

Every week we try to incorporate at least one full market meal into our meal plan. This week, we did stuffed Mexican peppers – no meat – with a side of fresh tortilla chips and pico de gallo (made that morning!!!), and a mix of market greens. It was a bit out of our comfort zone, as we are very much meat eaters in this house. I had been wanting to try to make stuffed peppers for quite sometime, but all the recipes I saw were filled with ground beef, and while we are meat eaters, we’re not so much beef eaters. So when I saw a recipe with quinoa and black beans, and saw that we could incorporate several ingredients from the market, and we had all others on hand, I thought it was perfect.

Red peppers: Greendale Herb and Vine; Stuffing: Roasted corn: Country Village Market; Italian onion stems: Yarrow EcoVillage; Cilantro: Zaklan Heritage Farm. Tortilla chips and pico de gallo: Muy Rico. Mixed greens: Zaklan Heritage Farm

The recipe can be found at http://www.thegardengrazer.com/2015/10/mexican-quinoa-stuffed-peppers.html

We altered the recipe a bit. Instead of baking the peppers in the oven, we grilled them on the barbecue. We also grilled the corn, something my husband, the chef of the house, had been wanting to experiment with for quite some time. Both added a really nice, smoky flavour to the meal. And instead of the nutritional yeast, we opted for shaved parmesan. We made 4 peppers, and had leftover filling for two lunch salads.

Not only smoky, the sweetness really came through on the grilled corn too.

In total, we spent $39, which means we’ve got an extra dollar to spend next week.

Happy shopping!

Farmers Market Challenge – Plan! Plan! Plan!

By

Going into the first week of our $40 market-spending challenge, I knew my husband and I were going to have to rework the way we did things with regards to meal planning and formulating shopping lists. Previously, we’d sit down at the end of the week to figure out the meals for the coming week, and then set a plan for acquiring groceries based on those meals. But with the Royal City Farmers’ Market on Thursdays, meal planning needed to be pushed back to at least Wednesday, if not Tuesday.

Instead of just coming up with meals off the tip of our tongues, we researched online what vendors were at the market for the coming week. We knew, given the amount of salads and vegetables we eat, we wanted the majority of our stock to be produce. We wanted something unique, something you wouldn’t necessarily see at the grocery store, or even the vegetable-specific shops. We also wanted a protein, which we recognized would eat up a good chunk of our budget. As such, fruit was not a priority; my family eats fruit nearly every meal and snack of the day, and unfortunately a small basket just wouldn’t go a long way.

The week’s loot:

A bag of red-leaf lettuce: $1
A bag of green beans: $3
A pound of nugget potatoes: $2
A bag of ruby streaks mustard greens: $3
A bunch of radishes: $2.50
2 heads of garlic: $1.50
1 crown of broccoli: $5
1 yellow zucchini: $1
1 pint of peaches: $5
4 salmon burgers: $16

Ruby streaks was of the unique realm. I’ve purchased pizzo mustard greens from Zaklan Farms previously, and LOVED them. They lasted a crazy long time in the fridge (TWO weeks!!!) without turning soggy or brown. I can’t say the same for the 300 gram plastic tubs of mixed greens we’ve recently been getting; within days, they’ve got soggy bits throughout, and often turn brown at the edges before finishing the tub. So this time I opted for the ruby streaks… pretty much because I thought it had the prettiest name of all greens!

The protein we settled on was salmon burgers from Wheelhouse Seafoods. At $4 for 1, we got 4, which served us 1 full dinner, plus an extra patty that I put on a lunch salad later in the week. Because they contained smoked salmon mixed with fresh salmon, they were super filling; I probably could have got by with a half serving, extending the meal even further. We paired the salmon burgers with grilled nugget potatoes and roasted garlic, along with a tossed salad with red-leaf lettuce, ruby streaks, radishes, and broccoli. The only components of the meal that weren’t market fare was the cucumber, cherry tomatoes, peppers, and dressing.

The plates were practically licked clean – even the three-year-old’s!

160701marketmeal

The indulgence was the peaches. I know I said fruit wasn’t a priority, but it was the first time we’d seen peaches this season, and we LOVE peaches. There was no way we were leaving without a basket in hand.

There were 5 peaches in total, 4 of which we dusted with brown sugar and olive oil and grilled on the barbecue for dessert one night – yum!

160701peaches

Most expensive item: the broccoli. Most places had set prices for produce, but the one vendor we acquired the broccoli from used a scale. I thought it would be around $3 to $4, not $5. Comparably, that’s a bit more than we would have spent elsewhere (usually around $3). I know I saw other vendors with cheaper broccoli, so the lesson learned: shop around for the best deals.

Tally for the week:

• 3 full-plate lunch salads
• 2 lunch side salads
• 3 breakfast smoothies (with the greens)
• 7 dinner 1/2 plate salads
• 5 dinners with grilled vegetables (broccoli, green beans, zucchini, potatoes, garlic)
• 1 dinner (for 3) salmon burgers
• 1 lunch salmon burger
• 1 dessert (for 3) grilled peaches
• 1 breakfast peach split between the three of us
• several snacks of radishes and brocolli

We ran out of zucchini by day 4 (I’m the only one who eats zucchini); radishes by day 5; and potatoes pretty much after the first meal. However, we’ve still got a garlic head, that we may target for pizza, a quarter crown of broccoli, a hefty bag of green beans, and, despite the amount of salads we eat, those greens (both the red-leaf and the ruby streaks) are still going strong. (Note: we did already have spinach and other mixed greens in our fridge before this shopping excursion, so that offset the amount of market greens we used.)

This week, we’ve got our eyes on the grass-fed lamb from Vale Farms and a hearty bunch of fresh-picked, local carrots.
