Beat the Summer Heat with .... Popsicles!! 

The Farmers Market is a treasure trove when it comes to ingredients for homemade popsicles, perfect for bringing down the temperature as we head into summertime!  Try strawberry beet, sour cherry, peach ginger, blueberry and rhubarb, or tomato basil peach, or use coconut water and your favorite cut fruit for a pop that is as yummy as it is pretty!  And who says popsicles are just for kids?  Add a cocktail kick with strawberry winesicle, amaretto sour cherry, or blackberry apricot tequila.  The combinations are endless.  Or, if you're just too hot to make the effort, skip the blender and try out one of the delightful sorbets from Ana's Twist!  Beat the heat at Barrett Elementary School on Saturday, June 12, from 8 a.m. to noon.  And don't forget your pre-orders for Saturday pickup!  We'll see you at the Market!

Recipe from vodkaandbiscuits.com
INSTRUCTIONS
  • Preheat oven to 350F.
  • Coat tomatoes in just enough oil to give them a nice rub. Toss in brown sugar and a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Place on baking sheet and bake for 1 hour until skin is wrinkly and tomatoes are nice and juicy.  Set aside to come to room temperature. 
  • Meanwhile, generously salt each eggplant round on both sides. Allow to sit and sweat for thirty minutes.
  • Rinse eggplants completely and dry.  
  • Gather your dipping station with the beaten egg and breadcrumbs.
  • Add enough oil to coat 1/2" of a frying pan and heat to medium heat. Oil is ready when a few crumbs dropped in sizzle.
  • Dip eggplant rounds into egg, then  crumbs, then carefully transfer to hot oil and cook 1-2 minutes on each side until browned.
  • Transfer to a plate lined with a paper towel and repeat.
  • Melt butter in a small saucepan and add minced garlic. Brush onto each half of buns and toast for 1-2 minutes.
  • Layer buns with cheese and eggplant/tomato/basil
