Cooking Out Of The Box

Where oh where has the spring gone?  We’re on week #5 of our CSA deliveries, and I have to admit that we’ve been very very bad about using the produce box to it’s full advantage.  Last week was a blur - I was on vacation, but didn’t spend a whole lot of time out of the office, so time at home was spent cramming “vacation time” things into a couple of hours a day.  That means that cooking went by the wayside.

Excuses, excuses.  No more excuses!  This week we’re getting back into the swing of things, and here’s the produce that we’re swinging with:

• Asparagus
• Bok Choi
• Cilantro
• French Breakfast Radishes
• Garlic Scrapes
• Red Boston Lettuce
• Potato Onions
• Rhubarb
• Arugula (mmmm, arugula)
• Spinach
• Burdock

More to come as the week wears on.  I’ll be posting about some of these items, and what we’ve done with them to incorporate them into the menu!
