Sauce and Soup

This weekend, Ben and I were working like crazy to get some things done while my little guys were and Nana’s house. We ended up finding organic zucchini at Vernon’s Produce and had enough to make 10 batches of zucchini soup with tahini (yum!). We ate it for lunch two days and still were able to freeze nine stuffed quart bags. Finding organic tomatoes ready to work with upon purchase took some more looking. We found them at the farmer’s market at the Dixie Classic Fairgrounds. One twenty-five pound box yielded 23 pints of our special sauce.

This is half of the zucchini. The box had 50 in all!

This shows the soup before it is pureed.

Early in the process–before I look exhausted at the end!

My, how we love this sauce. We are going to try to do two more runs before August ends.
