Here we are at week four of our CSA with Monroe Organic Farms. This week in our bag we received lettuce, yellow onions, squash, zucchini, cucumbers, garlic and broccoli. In addition we received 2 dozen eggs and a bag of beautiful apricots. I must admit that in the past it has been hard for us to consume all of our veggies, but this year we are going to do it! We vowed to eat all the items that arrived in our bag. Last week Matthew ate a few sautéed summer squash and this week I’ll have to learn to love broccoli. I am going to do my best to find recipes that will allow us to enjoy the food we are eating and put and end to our veggie. This week I am going to carrot and zucchini muffins. Maybe I can disguise the zucchini enough so Matthew will think that they are delightful. I might even try zucchini bread, however I am finding it difficult to locate a recipe that is right for us. I’ll just keep on searching.
Now when it comes to fruit, this family has no problems with consumption. The apricots are delicious! I am sure that they will disappear quickly; I wish that the fruit was more abundant. Last week I made a berry pie with cherries, strawberries, blueberries, apricots and raspberries. Matthew who hates pie was a fan. I wish I would have written down the ingredients so I could share it with you. Looks like I might have to make it again this week, I am sure that everyone will be bummed.
