This Week’s Share Contains Yellow Potatoes (Some Russets and Other Mixed In); Bunch Kale (Maybe depends on the weather);Shallots; Mars and/or Torpedo Onions; Turnips -or- Rutabaga; Pie Pumpkin -or- Red Kuri; Parsnips; Brussels Sprouts; Bag of Greens (Probably Mix of Claytonia and Tatsoi); 2 Mini Decorative Pumpkins; Butterworks Farm Early Riser Cornmeal; Fresh Cranberries from Vermont Cranberry Company;Dozen of Deborah’s Eggs; Organic Quebec Flaxseed
You may have noticed that there was no CSA share post last week that is because our partners took everything last week and we are taking everything this week because our CSA partners will be out of town this week. We will be giving the eggs to my parents as obviously we will not be eating them and our partners will not be around to take them.
Some plans we have to use these items are:
- Whipped Montreal Chicken Spiced Potatoes
- Mashed Turnip/Rutabega
- Fried parsnip rounds
- Roasted Brussels Sprouts
- Chickpea Pumpkin Tagine
- Apple Cranberry Salad with Fried Seitan and Almond Dijon Dressing (using the greens)
- We will be freezing the cranberries and using them for Christmas Dinner
- As for the other items only time will tell
Oh, I love fried parsnips. That’s actually the only way they taste good to me…I tried baking some once and wasn’t impressed…but fried, they were delicious.
Now that our farmer’s market is over here, I’m so wishing I’d signed up for a CSA.
