Healthy Chef Tip: Top 3 Fall Produce to Enjoy

As the leaves turn and the air crisps, we are in the midst of a wonderful fall harvest rich in flavors and colors. Here are our customer favorites this season:

1. Delicata Squash: With so many different varieties of squash in season, the delicata is a particular favorite because not only is it sweeter than butternut, beautiful to display, and roast well, you can also enjoy the skin without peeling, saving you time and providing you additional nutrition.

2. Foraged Mushrooms: Now is a great time to enjoy wild mushrooms, which are abundant and bursting with earthy umami flavors. Look for varieties like lobster, chanterelle, hedgehog, and matsutake to add a nutritious and flavorful delicacy to your meals.

3. Purple, Pink, & Watermelon Radish & Turnips: These vibrant roots are not only a feast for the eyes but are also wonderfully juicy, lightly sweet, and peppery. They can be sliced raw into salads, roasted, or stewed in soups for a milder flavor, making them a versatile choice for adding color and nutrition to your meals.
