Spring CSA #7

Good evening everyone

Looks like the nice weather has finally arrived! Lots to do and now! We are off to plant more potatoes in a bit and if all works out we will have alot! This week the laying hens were moved back out to the moveable hen house.

In your baskets this week:

1 bag of Chez Nous Salad Mix
1 Stir Fry bag- Kale, Napa Cabbage,Hakurei Turnip and Green Onions
1 bag of Beet Greens
1 Bag of Escarole/Endive
1 Oregano

Juicing bag (for those who have purchased this) pea shoots, Kale and Swiss Chard
Again, I am trying out some new Kales this year along with the old favorites.  I don't remember what the one in the front is called but it sure looks pretty

A deconstructed  stir-fry bag which a just ate for supper with a yummy, runny, dark yolk in the middle.

These are the two items in your Escarole bag.  They are fairly bitter on their own but do well mixed with other greens in a salad but my favorite is to cook them I was planning for some sort of pasta-escarole-oregano bake or ricotta-oregano and escarole filled crepes.  However, as I looked for inspiration online...I think it will be soup they look so good!

my collection of Escarole Recipes

Beet greens need nothing but light cooking and butter...
 Till next week!
