There were a few local meals this week, but since the unofficial theme seems to be simple, I’ll share the I-got-home-late-and-wanted-something-light-and-easy meal:
- An omelette, with eggs (from Ox Hollow farm), milk (from Beaver Brook Farm), miatake mushrooms (from Beaver Brook Farm that we dehydrated), broccoli (from Waldingfield Farm, out of the freezer), and sage cheddar cheese from the Vermont Country Store (a gift, local at the point of purchase).
- Home fries made from leftover Thanksgiving sweet potatoes (from Stone Gardens Farm) with local onions.
- Toast from whole wheat multi grain bread from The Groovy Baker, with butter (homemade).
Sorry, no picture; it was that quick and simple.

Simple meals are the best any way. And yours sounds fantastic, and super local. I was given a dehydrator really late in the season this year, we are going to clean it up to use on mushrooms, fruit, and chiles next year.

Your meal sounds good to me, simple and comforting. I still don’t remember to take pictures of my spotlight meals, lol. How do you make your sweet potato/onion homefry dish?

MangoChild: the homefries were the simplest thing to make! There were leftover baked sweet potatoes from Thanksgiving…slice them up and throw them in a pan of olive oil with a thinly sliced onion, a little salt and pepper and voila!
