The beets, carrots, cabbage, potatoes, and last week's golden beets have been blended up into a nice borscht. The golden beets give it a great colour.
Wow, is this the 10th drop already?!? Does that mean there are only 2 left??? :( Time sure has gone by quickly!
This week's potatoes will be a potato salad (along with some eggs, green onion and celery, of course!). We made a casserole out of the summer squash and the blueberries went into yesterday & today's breakfasts (fruit smoothie on Friday and whole wheat pancakes this morning). The carrots taste great! We've enjoyed them raw with dip and in coleslaw - I still have some left and may do carrot muffins or something like that with them. The zucchini was turned into a loaf last week and will be baked spears this week, and the beets have always been baked (at 400 degrees for 1 hr), but prepared differently after that: they were marinated in a vinaigrette once and sauteed in a pan the second time. Both methods were YUM! Today I spent some time searching for recipes to use the cabbage: may do a soup or maybe a 'lazy man's' cabbage roll (sort of like lasagna, but with cabbage roll ingredients). We shall see!
The beans went straight into the freezer, as we thought a bean salad in the middle of Winter may just hit the spot! :) I also freeze dried the basil ... looking forward to pasta sauce mid-February when the snow is flying and gardening is furthest from our minds. I just know it will taste amazing!!!
Can't wait to see our share for next week! Thanks again, Matt, April and Nathan ... all your hard work is much appreciated! Hope you all have a wonderful Long Weekend.
That sounds awesome Jay,
Thanks for the post Laura, we're always glad to hear from you and how you find ways to enjoy your share each week!
