It’s officially August! The start of late summer harvest begins and if you’re a gardener, you’re probably drowning in zucchini and tomatoes right now.
Today I’ve pulled together a plant-filled meal plan full of the most popular recipes on Fork in the Road in the month of August. And it’s no surprise that the summer’s most popular veggies make multiple appearances in this plan. Enjoy!

My favorite meal planning tips 💡
DID YOU KNOW? 🧐
Tomatoes likely originated in the Andes mountains of Peru and spread to Central and South America, and eventually Mexico, sometime in the past. Spanish Conquistadors first "discovered" them while exploring the Americas and brought them back to Europe. (source)
