Working in my home office on pick-up day this week so I invited Tenney to come along for the ride to the CSA. Our earlier than usual arrival found the place to be rather quiet - perhaps a reflection of summer vacations, holiday week. Our share was bountiful.
1 lb summer squash (a variety of yellow straight neck, flat yellow and green patti pan type, round green speckled and zucchini. There were 7 or 8 total so you know they were the cutest tender babies)
1 bunch thumbelina carrots
1 bunch white beets (going into the pickle jar this week - yum)
1 bunch kale (traded for another bunch of carrots this time)
3 kohlrabi (plus 1 from the surplus basket)
1 bunch swiss chard (beautiful deep green with red stems)
1 bunch green onions
3 heads garlic
Supper was leg quarters from a Costco chicken Tenney snagged with a $3 off coupon. Plus fried shredded Simply Potatoes with CSA sweet onions from last week. I cubed the baby squash, steamed, then tossed with butter, salt, pepper and parmesan cheese for a terrific side to the chicken. We ate it all.
Fourth of July celebration today with our community of friends. Sure to be great eats!
