We are getting out of the lettuce/salad greens and into more cucumbers, zucchini, onions…less leafy stuff.
Week 7 brought the first summer squash. And the first tomatoes. Just two but they were sooo good! I almost never buy tomatoes in the store so fresh ones in the summer are really about the only tomatoes we eat raw.
CSA Week 7 ~ 7.14.10
So you see another sack of potatoes, peas, kale, cukes, zucchini, summer squash, onions, and cabbage. How’s that for variety?
Here’s what I want to know: How do you use these vegetables? Especially the cabbage. I make cole slaw but that is about it. I know I could be doing more…
CSA Week 8 ~ 7.21.10
You can see that this week looks a lot like last, with the exception of the green beans! And no cabbage.
I still have the yellow squash and cabbage from week 7. I gave 2 zucchini away along with some green beans. We have a lot of green beans growing in our backyard gardens too, so I have LOTS of those right now.
The cucumbers and onions are already in a batch of refrigerator pickles and the peas will go in a turkey pot pie today.
What do you have growing? How are you using it?
Cabbage…mmm apart from caulslaw, I shred it finely and add to my stir fry near the end of cooking. Good for you!
