Author Notes
With over 300 vendors, the Jean Talon market in Montreal is a foodie’s paradise in the fall. As summer’s bounty is harvested, the market comes alive with all of the fresh produce. With so much to choose from, I love visiting the stalls and finding specialties from the local farms.
In the heart of Montreal’s Little Italy, not only can you find fresh fruits and vegetables, but there are also incredible choices of Italian delicacies.
Tonight, we have fresh roasted Italian tomatoes with fresh basil and sage on zucchini pasta. Not only is this dish gluten-free as well as whole plant-based, it is simple to prepare and delicious. If you feel extra hungry, add some cannellini beans! —lynne
