Comforting Vegetable Beef Stew
<p>This is a simple, easy old-fashioned stew that will warm your soul. You can use boxed, or canned broth or make your own with water and beef bullion. Next time I make this I will probably use a full head of cabbage because I love cabbage. You can add a pinch or two of salt if you want. Use medium/larger potatoes or 3 smaller ones.</p>

Cooked Cukes
<p>Most of the time, people only think of using cucumbers as a fresh vegetable in salads, sandwiches, or maybe a gazpacho. However, they can also be treated more like a summer squash. The texture and taste of a cooked cucumber is tender and mild. A great side dish when you’re in the mood for something different!</p>

Cosmic Charlie's Award Winning Scarlet/Fire Panini!
<p>Cosmic Charlie’s Scarlet/Fire Panini</p>
<p>*Last summer, we had a Market Cook-Off at The Champaign County Farmer’s Market, in June. This panini won two awards…Best Use Of Market Products and Cook-Off Champ!! Below is my inspiration and the ingredients for you to try…it all starts with a loaf of Cosmic bread!</p>
<p>My entry is a panini made with Cosmic Charlie’s Parmesan Oregano Bread and all local veggies from fellow vendors! The sandwich gets it name from a combo of songs that used to be played, together, at a Grateful Dead concert. The songs are Scarlet Begonia and Fire On The Mountain. When you heard the familiar tinklings of Scarlet Begonia starting to filter through the crowd, you knew that it would seque into Fire On The Mountain. Deadheads shortened the titles and lovingly would refer to the combo as Scarlet/Fire. This was a familiar happening at Dead shows with many of the song combos that were joined, together. Since my business, Cosmic Charlie Bread, gives a nod to my love of The Grateful Dead, and their song, Cosmic Charlie, is my inspiration, and since I am a loving Deadhead, Scarlet/Fire seemed like the perfect title to give a perfect sandwich!</p>
<p>The panini will start with Cosmic’s Parmesan/Oregano bread. I grow my own herbs, organically, and my bread is all natural, unbleached flour, with no preservatives or oils. The flavors of the bread will cosmically unite with the Scarlet part of the duo in the form of sliced tomatoes from Lonny’s Green Acres. The Fire part of the duo will come from the kick of Mary Jane garlic, from JC Growers, that will be roasted, carmelized and spread on the bread. The Fire also comes from the dried red pepper that runs through my Parmesan/Oregano bread. The “rifts” that will bring the harmony all together will be roasted sweet onions and banana peppers from Lonny’s Green Acres. You always need a core to bring the group, all together, and for me, that was always Jerry Garcia, at the shows, and in the sandwich, it will be provolone cheese from the local Yutzy’s cheeses.</p>
<p>After the first bite, I hope that the judges and fans will see a “sky that’s yellow and a sun that’s blue” (nod to a verse in Scarlet Begonias), that takes them into the flavorful world of Cosmic Charlie.</p>
<p>For my fans and Bread Heads, I will be offering samples, all market, of my Parmesan/Oregano Bread…</p>
<p>Peace, Love, Bread</p>

Servings: 1 loaf of Cosmic will give you 6 panini sandwiches
