This weeks bounty
Monday March 28th 2011

Not a bad looking box, eh? To all the (thousands and thousands of) Canadian readers out there, it’s March. Yeah, March. And this is all growing less than 100 miles from here! Sorry, had to rub it in!

So what’s in there?

There’s some escarole at 9 o’clock. Sarah suggested maybe a creamy salad (aka caesar) for it. Seems earthy lovely. I’ll have to give that a try.
Melinda already made some soup with the spring garlic (going from 6 to 11 o’clock).
The bunch of thyme there will go on everything and anything.
The mustard greens or kale or whatever the green is at 5 o’clock will go into a bean dish of some sort.
Carrots and parsnips might get roasted. Or maybe mashed parsnips, like a mashed potato. Of the carrots into a carrot soup?
Chard at 12 o’clock will go into a soup I think.
And the little lettuce heads will go into a I-have-no-time-to-make-a-big-dinner salad some night during the week.

What are you going to do with your box?

But can you go down to the beach and pick up mussels oysters or clams when ever. Check you e-mail for the mussel fest and fresh salad from my back yard!!

we did this with the chard, although instead of hot sauce, I went for a healthy dose of red pepper flakes, and used the spring garlic vs standard. there was enough here for a main dish, so for the side I got creative and steamed what was left of parsnips (roasted some w carrots last week) with delicata and tossed w mexican cheese blend, olive oil and cilantro. turned out better than I thought.
