CSA, Week 4

This week’s veggies:**

090701-second week csa-01702-Edit

**Not pictured: 1/2 dozen farm fresh eggs and ornamental hot pepper plant

Meal ideas:

The kolrabi went into a bean soup/stew that we made tonight.  I had a bag of mixed beans and lentils in the pantry, so I soaked them overnight to use for tonight’s dinner.  I sauteed up  some onion, celery, bell pepper, and garlic scapes along with the kolrabi and added in vegetable stock for a nice hearty dish.  There are lots of leftovers, so we’ll have to be creative in their use.  I meant to add the epazote to the dish as well, but forgot, so we’ll have to come up with another use.

The salad greens, raddish, sorrel, kohlrabi leaves, and basil will likely end up in a salad.  And, we’ll probably have some omelets with fresh herbs as well.

You’ll notice we skipped weeks 2 and 3, which if you’ve been reading the blog, you know its because we’ve been on vacation.  Some lucky friends of ours got to enjoy our organic veggies in our absence.
