Recipe News: Take your pick of recipes that use fresh veggies

"My friends who have home gardens have been more than generous this summer. I've put up several containers of maque choux, 10 pints of bread and butter pickles and two tomato casseroles, but my countertops are still piled with fresh vegetables.

I certainly am not complaining. There really isn't anything better, as far as I'm concerned, than anything made with local produce, but I was running out of ideas as to what to do with them. Then my neighbor dropped in with yet more eggplant from his garden.

He explained that he had made a rice and eggplant dressing the night before and was going to make a batch of caponata to have on hand for the weekend when several of his children and their spouses were coming."

Includes recipes for:

• Caponata


• Ratatouille


• Summer succotash
