This Week's CSA Basket from Eatwell Farm

Can you say cruciferous vegetables?  Not sure I spelled it right, but this week's CSA share is loaded with them -

Broccoli
Romanesco
Cauliflower
Wakefield cabbage
Beets
Lettuce
Persimmons
Onions
Radish
Baby Bol choy
Italian parsley
Sweet potatoes

I like stir fry with broccoli and bok choy so that's one meal.  Romanesco gratin with roasted sweet potatoes - I just can't get enough of that, along with some meatloaf - a tasty dinner.  The cabbage and beets will be used with another head of cabbage to make some sauerkraut.  Macaroni and cheese with pureed cauliflower, whole peas and a bit o' ham sounds good to me.  Lettuce for salads along with the radishes.  Onions are always good in so many things - a little in the meatloaf, some in the mac and cheese, sauteed of course.  Italian parsley adds a dash of green to any dish or use the stems for making chicken broth.
Good meals here any way you look at it.
