CSA – Week 9

 

Another delicious week of vegetables. There was a lot of variety this week!

Such a yummy CSA this week, starting with parsley. Because you can never have too much parsley. I love adding it to foods!

Peppers, red and yellow. My 2yr old insists on calling them apples. And he’s more than happy to just take a bite out of them!

These are calledĀ red torpedo onions and they look delicious! Every time I look at them I want to eat them.

Beets, I made another batch of pickled beets this week. My 6yr old likes them.

Green beens. You can have too many of these (if you’ve ever had too many bean plants you know what I’m talking about) but it’s really hard because they’re so delicious.

Kale – I love kale, but my family does not share my like šŸ™

Celery. This organic, local celery is so flavorful. It has way more flavor than what you get at your grocery store. I’m just amazed.

CSA – Week 6

I’m having so much fun with these CSAs. Here’s what came in this week’s CSA.

More beets. This is not my favorite vegetable, but after having them for weeks, I’m staring to discover some ways to use them that me and the kids all like.

Green onions. I’ve started putting these in everything, and I’m finally using them up as I get them!

Swiss Chard. I didn’t think the kids would eat this, but I’ve been putting it in dishes and as long as it’s cut small enough the kids are eating it without a problem.

Parsley. No basil this week, but I have a bit left from last week, and now I have parsley as well.

Lettuce. It’s a good thing we like salads. I’ve gotten lettuce every week.

Tomatoes. I love these tomatoes. They’re so delicious!

IMG_0943

Squash. This vegetable is a favorite at my house. And these look so delicious.

Celery. I tried one of these plain and it was so strong! I didn’t realize how much more flavor locally grown would have. I’m loving this in soups and it would be great with peanut butter as well.
