Recipes Using Maine Foods

Many of these recipes were provided by restaurants participating in the annual October Maine Menus Month promotion, or in the Lobster Promotion Council's lobster recipe competition.

"Maine Market Basket" recipes come from an ongoing seasonal foods information resource published by the Maine Nutrition Network and the Maine Department of Agriculture with contributions from Roger Doiron of the Eat Local Foods Coalition and kitchengardeners.org.

Recipes labeled "Taste of Maine" were included in the public television production of that name and are credited to Raquel Beormer show host.

"Focus on the Farm" recipes come from the cable TV series produced by the Department of Agriculture and featuring First Lady Karen Baldacci and are credited to a variety of sources including the Blaine House, local Maine farmers or food producers in Maine.
