How to Shop at a Downtown Farmers Market

Step 9 Eat!

I recommend trying to eat or cook your haul as soon as possible. Cut up your cucumber and use it with hummus or some interesting dip. Eat your apples with peanut butter or cheese or caramel (or, if you have to, something healthier). Steam or roast or fry your squash and other vegetables -- and then melt your cheese all over them. Mmm, all vegetables taste great smothered in melted cheese. Or, heck, make a real recipe if you must. I have no advice for you on actual cooking.
