CSA pick-up last week wasn't happening without a kind friend to kick it on over to the farm and pick-up for us.
She said there was ... 2 small cabbages, a small bunch of broccoli, leeks, basil, peaches, and eggs.
This week (week 5!) there was:
 |
| 2 mini cabbages, celery, beets, eggs, cherry tomatoes, green beans and red potatoes |
Wahoo! The celery is more leaves than stems, so I'll probably try to use those and I'm not sure about the green cherry tomatoes. Does anyone know? Will they ripen if they're picked green? Or do we need to find a green tomato recipe?
And ... my CSA pick-of-the-week is these beauties.
Farm fresh eggs are such a treat to those on a low food budget - and it's not like we live in Amish country to just pick up a few on the side of the road (ahem, in-laws). The taste is great, the yolk is a lovely orange and I don't think I'd need to refrigerate them if I didn't have to. I love it!
We've also gathered in a little from our garden (which is slowly withering away from the intense heat ...).
Some garlic.
And my cherry tomatoes have started to turn red!! There are so many on the two bushes I have yet to ripen, but I am excited (and I'm willing to water them so they live too)!
I've gotten so much cabbage - I'll share a cabbage recipe next week with you that is easy, delicious and we love!
Until then... sayonara!
