The Vancouver Winter Farmers Market<\/a> is on until April 27 at the Nat Bailey Stadium and there are lots of products that are just beginning to show up for spring as well as the all season and winter items that are still in stock.<\/p>\n

The food trucks are out in full force, so grabbing lunch is always part of the adventure. \u00a0I had a PLT from Pig on the Street<\/a>. A tasty\u00a0double smoked bacon, greens, vine-ripened tomato, avocado, farmhouse cheddar, and bacon mayo wrap. \u00a0VERY delicious and super filling.<\/p>\n

While I waited (this is slow food folks and can take up to 20 minutes, but it’s worth it!), I \u00a0slurped back a few oysters from Sawmill Bay<\/a>; both the Reed Island Gems and Sawmill Bay Gems. \u00a0Quite different from each other, the Reed Island being a bit creamier and sweeter. I suggest getting both and then shuck, suck and compare. By the way…have you joined The Good Life Vancouver Oyster Club<\/a> yet? \u00a0So far we’ve \u00a0just on Facebook,<\/a> but more on this soon.<\/p>\n

\"IMG_2523\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Stinging Nettles are out in full force (pictured above from Hannah Brook Farms<\/a>) but I’ve got a ton of kale right now that I’m working on so I had to pas. \u00a0I love these in Pesto and while looking for a recipe for this I found\u00a0www.thekitchn.com<\/a>\u00a0and more recipes for nettles:<\/p>\n

1.\u00a0Garlicky Nettle Pesto<\/a>\u00a0from Hogwash<\/strong>\u00a0– Terrific tossed with a bowl of spaghetti or rubbed into spring lamb.<\/p>\n

2.\u00a0Spinach and Nettle Crustless Spanakopita<\/a>\u00a0from Stitch n’ Boots<\/strong>\u00a0– A strata of nettles and spinach made rich with eggs and feta. (Gluten-free!)<\/p>\n

3.\u00a0Spring Lasagna with Asparagus, Peas, and Stinging Nettles<\/a>\u00a0from The Bitten Word<\/strong>\u00a0– All the best flavors of spring in this one.<\/p>\n

4.\u00a0Nettle Gnudi<\/a>\u00a0from Salty Seattle<\/strong>\u00a0– These are a cousin of gnocchi made with ricotta and wilted nettles.<\/p>\n

5.\u00a0Nettle-Mushroom Pie with Pine Nuts<\/a>\u00a0from Voodoo & Sauce<\/strong>\u00a0– An easy savory pie for dinner, lunch, or brunch.<\/p>\n

6.\u00a0Nettle Aloo<\/a>\u00a0from Just Cook It<\/strong>\u00a0– A hearty Indian stew with nettles, sweet potatoes, and chickpeas.<\/p>\n

7.\u00a0Stinging Nettle Ravioli with Butter and Sage<\/a>\u00a0from La Travola Marche<\/strong>\u00a0– Little pillows of nettle-stuffed goodness.<\/p>\n

8.\u00a0Nettle Pizza with Fontina, Taleggio, and Pancetta<\/a>\u00a0from Serious Eats: Slice<\/strong>– Actually a review of a pizza from Lovely’s Fifty-Fifty restaurant, take this one as inspiration to make your own seasonal pizza.<\/p>\n

\"IMG_2534\"<\/a><\/p>\n

There are\u00a0daffodils\u00a0out and the supplier had three different kinds, these I couldn’t resist but I wish I bought more and filled up a few vases.<\/p>\n

\"IMG_2533\"<\/a><\/p>\n

As a kiwi myself, I had to try the new\u00a0Petkov\u00a0Kiwi Fruit<\/a>,\u00a0out of Abbotsford, so grabbed two and designated them for Monday when they ripen a bit more.<\/p>\n

\"IMG_2531\"<\/a><\/p>\n

There’s lots of squash, kale kale kale, herbs, honey and much more. \u00a0The full list is below.<\/p>\n
