    I've been buying and eating strawberries like crazy now that they're in season. Can't wait for raspberries to start. I'm planning on buying lots of fresh local produce at the farmers market this year.

    I love fresh tomatoes from the garden! They are very tasty with a little salt and pepper or with cottage cheese. Can't wait for my garden to produce! In the mean time, I will buy from the Farmer's Market.

    I like to take a handful of grape tomatos and some green pepper, a couple black olives and slice them all up and mix them with cottage cheese, then add a bit of italian seasoning. I call it Italian cottage cheese salad.

    Cottage cheese with fresh pineapple, strawberries (basically any berry for that matter), and light summer salads with feta cheese and mandarin oranges!
