I'm going to avoid the food politics (geez people!) and just say one word: sausages. They're self-contained and very easy to cook. If you have a grill pan (or better yet, a grill), toss them on there & turn them until they're done through (to test for doneness, poke one to the middle and watch the juices that come out -- they should be clear. If you're still unsure, just slice it open & look at the middle -- it'll be pretty obvious if it's not done).

if you don't have a grill pan, you can saute them in a skillet, with a thin layer of olive oil. It's nice to toss some onions and maybe some green peppers in alongside them.

Italian sausages work great this way, and If you have access to a new york or new jersey style 'pork store' you can often find some good hand-made one. Otherwise, at Whole Foods and many ordinary supermarkets you can get good chicken sausages, sometimes flavored
with herbs, apples, etc.

Enjoy!

Your idea of having the farmers submit what they expect to bring to market and when is a *great* idea. Like any "in season" guide (like here: http://bit.ly/QBYcz) this app bound to be only a very general guideline at best.

Farmers are very innovative and will find ways to grow a much wider variety of crops over a much more flexible growing season than any map can pin down. Last year i found plenty of strawberries in August -- the farmers told me they were growing varieties that produced berries all summer long. And you'll find much wider variety at the market than on the map too -- gooseberries anyone? Black currents?

As for recipes, Epicurious has a terrific free iPhone app, that taps into their 30,000-strong recipe database. Likely you'll find some guidance there for your bok choy.

Wow - Great list! This'll sure give me some good summer reading material. Mine's Dave's Kitchen. I write posts about cooking, with some recipes, and I also cover what's happening at the New York City Farmers' Markets. Enjoy!
