Simple Recipes that Showcase the Freshness of Greenhouse Produce

September brings a change of pace. School is back in session, fall sports are filling up the calendar, and families are settling into busy routines, all while trying to soak up those last warm sunny days of the season.

When schedules get hectic, it can be tempting to sacrifice fresh, homemade meals for convenience. But fresh doesn’t have to mean complicated.

Greenhouse-grown vegetables make it easy to add vibrant color, fresh flavor and wholesome ingredients to everyday meals, without spending hours in the kitchen. From crisp peppers and cucumbers to juicy flavorful tomatoes, fresh greenhouse produce can transform even the simplest recipe.

Here are four of our favorite recipes for those busy September days. They’re simple, delicious and ready in 30 minutes or less (with an easy make-ahead option, too!).

Savory Pepper Muffins
