from Teri:
As a vegetable-forward cook, I love having a great variety of beautiful in-season California produce in my kitchen. It brings me so much inspiration, joy, and excitement to cook with such wonderful CA Grown food.
I always say, most people go to California for the wine, but I go for the produce. There’s nothing I love more than cooking with and enjoying California Grown produce. As a food blogger and recipe creator, I think it’s crucial to know where our food comes from, and I love knowing my food is California Grown.
It means a lot to me that my food is coming from the incredible California farmers and farmworkers who work tirelessly year-round to make sure we have delicious produce available to us. I am so grateful for all that they do, and I am thrilled to support them, knowing that they are farming sustainably and with integrity. Not to mention, the produce is just truly fabulous.
Here are a few of my favorite recipes made with California’s fabulous bounty – and scroll down for the toast recipe!
The BEST Homemade Mayo!
My Homemade Mayonnaise Recipe is made with California Extra Virgin Olive Oil, and sweetened naturally. It’s not only super-easy and WAY more delicious than store bought mayo, it’s Whole30 and Paleo-friendly too. Once you make a batch, you’ll use it on everything.
Tomato Confit
This easy Tomato Confit is a delicious way to preserve fresh summer tomato flavor, plus it’s super versatile. Use it as a soup or sauce base, a salad dressing, toss it with pasta, or mix it into mayo or guacamole for a condiment with tomato kick. A jar of homemade Tomato Confit is also a fabulous gift.
Greek Inspired Fries with Tzatziki
These homemade Greek-inspired fries are a must-make meal. They are so delicious, and packed with wonderful fresh ingredients. The whole meal feel so indulgent. Best of all, it’s filled with lovely California vegetables!

I’m a girl that is simply smitten with cherries. I couldn’t be more excited to share this gluten-free Cherry Cobbler recipe with you. It is so delicious, and I love knowing that my cherries have been basking in the California sun. It just feels so healthful and wholesome.

Teri’s California Grown Avocado Toast Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 2 slices bread I used gluten free
- Homemade Mayonnaise
- 1 large avocado sliced, divided
- 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes sliced in half, divided
- 1 cup arugula divided
- Marinated Red Onions or pickled onions
- Kosher salt to taste
- 1/2 lemon
- 4 tablespoons or more sheep’s milk feta divided
- 1-2 tablespoons California extra virgin olive oil for drizzling
Instructions
For Jammy Eggs:
- Fill a small saucepan with water and bring to a gentle boil over medium-high heat. Prepare a small bowl of ice water.
- Gently place the eggs in the boiling water and boil for for 7 1/2 minutes, adjusting the heat as necessary to prevent the water from boiling too rapidly and cracking the eggs. Remove the eggs using a slotted spoon and transfer them to the bowl of ice water for 30 seconds. Remove from the cold water, peel and slice them in half, working quickly as they continue to cook in their shells. Set aside.
For the Avocado Toast:
- Toast the slices of bread.
- Spread a generous amount of the Homemade Mayonnaise over each slice. Divide the sliced avocado between the slices. Layer the cherry tomatoes over the avocado slices.
- In a small bowl, place the arugula with a drizzle of the Marinated Red Onion oil or olive oil, toss to coat completely. Layer the arugula over the cherry tomatoes. Season the toasts with salt and a squeeze of lemon juice, to taste. Sprinkle 2 or more tablespoons of crumbled feta over each toast, and place one Jammy Egg on top of each.
- Finish the toasts with some Marinated Red Onions or pickled onions and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.
