May is National Strawberry Month, National Egg Month, and National Asparagus Month. We are so pleased that we have farmers who sell all of these products! Here are some recipes for both of these products:
Strawberry Spinach Salad with Candied Pecans
Serves: serves 4 to 6
Ingredients:
2 tbsp butter
1 cup pecan halves
2 tbsp brown sugar
6 oz baby spinach leaves
1½ cups sliced strawberries, stems removed
¼ cup crumbled goat cheese (or feta cheese if desired)
balsamic vinaigrette
Instructions:
p. Melt the butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Toss in the pecans and brown sugar, stirring to coat. Cook over medium heat until the sugar begins to caramelize (about 3 minutes). Spread out pecans on a wax paper lined baking sheet to cool.
In your salad bowl layer the spinach leaves, strawberries, goat cheese and pecans. Don’t pour dressing on salad until ready to serve. Enjoy!

You can purchase strawberries at market from Rainbow’s Produce and Xiong Farm.
You can purchase Feta or Chevre from White River Creamery via the online market and pick it up at the Saturday market.
SCOTCH EGGS
6 hard cooked eggs cooled and peeled
1 lb pork breakfast sausage
2 cups breadcrumbs (more if needed)
1/2 cup flour or cornstarch
3 eggs beaten
Heat oil in deep-fryer or deep skillet to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Place eggs in saucepan and cover with water. Bring to boil. Cover, remove from heat, and let eggs sit in hot water for 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from hot water, cool and peel, and dry.
Flatten the sausage and make a patty to surround each egg. Very lightly flour the egg. Flatten a sausage patty and wrap an egg, sealing it around the egg. Coat with beaten egg. Roll in bread crumbs, slightly pressing crumbs onto sausage to cover evenly.
Deep fry until golden brown, or pan fry while making sure each side is well cooked.
Eat out of hand or serve with a mustard sauce.
(You may either cook the eggs until hard cooked or slightly runny yolks. Totally up to you!)
