It’s the big weekend, the culmination of the NFL Season, and many of us will
be watching as the Patriots take on the Falcons on Superbowl
Sunday. That said, we hope that everyone will come to Pathfinder Produce
this week for some fresh and yummy fruits and veggies, so that your game-time
treats won’t raise your lipid levels or slow you down.
Our All-Star Produce team is here to help you get just what you
need for your Superbowl gathering. We’re here at Pathfinder Produce,
Edmeston, in the Village Commons on Thursday afternoons from 1 to 5 p.m.
And our second market each week is at the UMC Hall, 17 Church St., Morris on
Fridays, from noon to 5 p.m.
We hope to see you later this week!

Look!
It’s rice! It’s mashed potatoes! No, it’s Cauliflower!
Health
food fads have a tendency to come and go, but right now cauliflower seems to be
having a moment. Cauliflower has a reputation for being pretty bland—the last
to be eaten on the holiday veggie platter, and often pushed to the side of
children’s (and adults’) dinner plates. In recent years though, this
oft-neglected vegetable has gotten a makeover. Low in fat and carbohydrates,
and rich in Vitamin C, cauliflower has become the go-to replacement for—well,
just about anything honestly! Swap out traditionally starch/carb-heavy
ingredients like rice, potatoes, and pizza dough (no, seriously) for
cauliflower and see for yourself how versatile this veggie can really be!
