The Philadelphia Farm and Food Fest was a massive event held this Sunday at Philadelphia's spankin' new convention center. Featuring over 100 vendors, and attracting more than 3,000 visitors, the first annual festival was organized by Fair Food and the Pennsylvania Association for Sustainable Agriculture, in conjunction with Reading Terminal Market.
Root Vegetable Gratinée
I stop by Fair Foods at Reading Terminal Market on Monday's for their 10% discount on week old, but still fresh, produce. I got some beautiful parsnips, carnival carrots and new potatoes. However many of Monday's produce won't last past Wednesday, so I decided to put together this super easy Gratinée, which feeds a crowd! Roasting vegetables and adding a tomato or cheese sauce (or both) creates a delicious and hearty dinner. Adding any old shredded bread you have laying around, helps complete this effortless Gratinée!
