Spring is here! I know fresh veggies are on their way! Local tomatoes are still a dream here in PA. It doesn’t mean I need to wait until July to enjoy some. Fresh vine ripened tomatoes from Florida are popping up in stores. Yeah!
I’m not the only one who noticed! Today’s Sunday Supper is celebrating tomato’s return!

Recipes Using Fresh Tomatoes

Did you know April is National Florida Tomato Month? Fresh tomatoes are in abundance in spring! Florida is the second largest tomato producer in the country, producing about 50% of the country’s fresh tomatoes! Say goodbye to the canned stuff and show us what you can make with some juicy fresh tomatoes! Tomatoes are high in vitamin C, Vitamin A, fat-free, low in sodium and satisfy 10 percent of your daily potassium needs. Not to mention, fresh tomatoes are flavorful and delicious. Tomatoes have a subtle sweetness as well as bright acid notes. They are a perfect for eating raw, roasting, braising, grilling, even in some desserts! We want to see how you showcase some beautiful fresh tomatoes in your recipes!

Thank you, Rini from Healing Tomato for hosting our event!

Old Fashioned Peanut Rolled Candy Eggs Revisited

peanut rolled eggs and bunny

Creamy nougat candy eggs dipped in chocolate and rolled in chopped peanuts. An old fashioned Easter homemade candy treat!

It’s that time if year again. Time to break out the my favorite homemade candy recipes. These peanut covered egg shaped candy was always around at Easter. Simple to make and great for kids and adults alike! Enjoy!

Old Fashioned Peanut Rolled Egg Candy Revisited

Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/4 cup butter, softened
  • 3 cups powdered sugar, divided
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 10-ounce bag dark chocolate candy melts
  • 2 cups chopped peanuts (I used the sea salt ones)

Instructions

  • Melt chocolate in a double boiler or microwave, stirring until smooth. Spread crushed peanuts on a plate.
  • While chocolate melts, whisk together milk, butter and vanilla.
  • Gradually stir in 2 1/2 cups of the powdered sugar. Coat your hands with powdered sugar and knead dough until it reaches the desired consistency. Your dough should be firm by not crumbly. Add more sugar if needed. Dough will be sticky. Form dough into a log and dust with powdered sugar then roll up in parchment paper. Refrigerate for at least an hour until firm enough to handle.
  • When dough is set, cut off pieces into desired size. Remember that your finished candy will be a bit larger with the candy coating and added peanuts.
  • Form the piece of dough into an egg shape. You can use the space between your index finger and thumb as a guide.
  • Dip the candy into the melted chocolate to coat on all sides. Tap off excess. Lay coated candy in peanuts and roll around to coat. Let set a minute or until chocolate starts to set up. Reshape as needed. Chill until fully set. Enjoy!

Meyer Lemon Chicken Picatta

I’m a big fan of spring. My favorite flowers come out of hiding. Purple dots of violets appear in the newly greened grass. Lily-of-the-Valley, lilacs, pansies, daffodils and tulips take turns putting on show of pastel colors and delicate scents.

Daylight isn’t as fast to disappear as snow and ice.

Fresh local veggies start to reappear at farmers markets and neighborhood stores. Time to start planning my own garden too!

I’m sure you’ve heard the phrase, “spring chicken” so a young tender chicken dish it will be! A dish with my favorite citrus of course, Meyer Lemon!
