Welcome to Seduced by Produce

I get pleasure out of experimenting in my kitchen with food. I am helpless against the siren song of beautiful fruits, vegetables and herbs. I love going to local farms and farmer's markets, taking home my purchases, and then trying to figure out healthy and delicious ways to cook it all. That doesn't mean that I don't make unhealthy foods, but when I do, I try to make them worth the calories and time. I don't cook every day, but when I do, I want it to be delicious.

Eggplant Turnovers (Empanadas de Berenjenas)

I'm still playing with Gil Marks' Olive Trees and Honey and got a bit excited by the section on savory turnovers.  Yes, a section on turnovers!!!  You may be laughing at this point, but if you are then that means you have never had a pasty or an empanada!  I've always hated the phrase, "you don't know what you are missing" because it seems pretty redundant. If you've never had a savory turnover, you've never enjoyed this neat and portable meal that can be eaten hot or cold and one-handed too!
