Myra Goodman is the co-founder of Earthbound Farm, a company that brings together 150 farmers who use organic farming methods. You’ve probably seen their salad mixes, snacks and produce at your local supermarkets.

We’ve gotten to know Myra, and we were thrilled when she came out with this cookbook. The book is full of beautiful pictures of farming, and it really makes you think about where your food came from.

The recipes make use of lots of fresh produce (as you can imagine), and I flip through it when I bring in our homegrown goodies from the garden. I especially love how she gives fresh, in-season veggies a whole new twist!

Myra tells you how to do all kinds of wonderful things with pasta and vegetable combinations. And I’m particularly fond of the Stir-Fried Tofu, especially when I add a few red pepper flakes.
