Winter Farm Share

This winter we're once again participating in a local, organic CSA.  I pick up our weekly share every Thursday at a little natural grocery store near campus.

This week we received:

Acorn Squash
Hakurei turnip greens
Leeks
Baby Bok Choy
Parsley
Red Russian Kale
Beets
Potatoes
Carrots
Onions
Garlic


The squash and beets went to my Dad as well as some of the potatoes, carrots, and onions.  We're formally sharing this year instead of me just dropping off vegetables that I can't possibly use.

So... this makes cooking an adventure!

Today we're having golden winter soup which uses the leeks and some of the potatoes.  Tomorrow is chicken and vegetable stir fry which will use garlic, carrots, onions, and the bok choy.  Thursday is an Asian stew which is more of the same.  Thursday we're having soy glazed fish with zucchini and the beet greens.  Friday, in a nod to my husband, we're having totally normal stuffed peppers with beef.
