This week we have another great box of fruits and vegetables from Eatwell Farm. They are:
Green Beans
Fuji Apples
Cherry Tomatoes
Serrano Chiles
Baby Bok Choy
Collard Greens
Sweet
Potatoes
Easter Egg
Radishes
Romaine Lettuce
Fennel
Eggplant
Oh boy! The fuji apples are great snacks or fruit for lunch. Sweet Potatoes! Love them - just roast in the oven and eat, but maybe these will get special treatment and become sweet potato rolls - check out http://www.thefreshloaf.com for the recipe. The baby bok choy calls out - stir fry! Romaine, radishes, cherry tomatoes and fennel are a great start to a tasty salad or two. Of course fennel braised in white wine and broth would be a tasty side dish for a roast chicken. Eggplant makes fantastic baba ganoush roasted, or cook the roasted eggplant flesh with tomatoes, onions and garlic, puree the whole thing to make a tasty pasta sauce. Green beans just steamed with some fish and rice makes a quick healthy meal. The serrano chilis will spice up any dish, you can slice them in half the long way, remove the seeds, freeze on a cookie sheet, then bag them up for later use. Collards with onions and garlic sauteed in olive oil makes a great side dish for a barbequed chicken or lamb shanks and cornbread. MMMMMMmmm the possibilities!
