Filled with a new assortment of produce, it is always fun for me as I open my new CSA harvest basket and discover what is inside.
Each week, the onions get bigger. I shall use these for salads and stir fry.
More crisp Swiss chard this week. I usually stir fry Swiss chard in a small amount of olive oil and toss in a few Italian seasoned sundried tomatoes - a wonderful side dish with my dinner.
A bundle of freshly pulled carrots. These will be sliced and grilled with a mixture of some of the other vegetables.
I will be able to make enough tossed salads for my lunches this week out of this large head of red tipped lettuce. I will add a few other fresh vegetables - some of the onion, snap peas, carrots and zucchini, then serve with mango salsa instead of a traditional type of salad dressing.
New to me this week is fennel. I will enjoy researching a new recipe to try with the fennel bulb - maybe a soup or a salad dish. That should be fun!
This time, both a green and a yellow zucchini! The yellow will be sliced and added to my salads for the week, and the green will be grilled with the other assorted vegetables and served as a side dish, perhaps with some saved out to use in an omelet for brunch one morning.

More red cherries this week.
And more sugar snap peas! I have enjoyed the snap peas each week in my other baskets and am very happy to see more again this week. I have been grilling them mixed in with other vegetables, adding them to my salads and eating some fresh as a crispy snack.
Yum, all so very, very good!
