Category: Meals for the week

Fall is actually supposed to arrive in Florida this weekend. There had been talk of chilly trick-or-treaters, but it looks like the cold won’t be here until tomorrow. We’re expecting lows in the 30s tomorrow and Sunday!! Here’s some recipes to use up this week’s CSA goodies.

1. Pasta with Broccoli Rabe and Sausage

3. Lemon Arugula Pizza with Goat Cheese
4. Braised Greens and Cannellini Bean Panini
5. Fried Chickpeas on Naan with Green Beans with Bacon Vinaigrette
6. Fall Vegetable Quinoa Soup
7. BBQ Chicken with Butter Baked Turnips

This is week two of our CSA, and while I had hoped to make a habit of adding a photo, this week caught us off guard with a school holiday and scout camping trip. So, we’re a bit late in posting, and everything’s in fridge. So here’s what we have for the week:

1. Lemony Kale Quinoa with Sausages
2. Beef Tataki using the Breakfast Radishes (and doubling the carrots and radishes called for in the recipe)
3. Turnips and Radishes in Mustard Sauce adding the turnip greens, with Rotisserie Chicken
4. Bok Choy and Green Beans with Brown Rice
5. Black Bean, Sweet Potato and Cilantro Burritos
