We moved last weekend, so when I went to pick up our CSA share, my mother commented that she and my husband didn’t think I would take pictures this round.

They were wrong. I just didn’t post them for over a week. Here’s what we got!

Some recipe suggestions:

  • This Warm Red Cabbage Salad is still one of my favorite things ever.
  • Pickles! Lots of pickles.
  • Asian Broccoli Slaw uses broccoli, cabbage, and carrots.
  • The Antonhi peppers are a Romanian sweet pepper and would work nicely in a Romesco sauce
  • I ate a whole bowl of those Padron peppers last night, blistered in a cast iron pan with olive oil, sprinkled with salt and pepper. They’re also great in eggs.
  • Chunks of carrot, some diced onion, a diced squash, some cubed tempeh, and a few chopped chard leaves topped with a poached or lightly fried egg make a fabulous breakfast hash. Add a splash of sriracha to really kick it up.
  • Can’t use your mint fast enough? Toss a few sprigs in a pitcher of water.
  • Micro basil is a beautiful finish to a salad, pasta dish, omelet or scramble, almost anything with tomatoes…

What’s in your CSA?

Thanks, Liz! That’s about the extent of my “graphic design” capabilities. 😉

I want that box of micro basil. I would put it on top of a tuna tartare. :) And those eight-ball squash are adorable!!!

Way to prove your husband and your mother wrong.
