Winter CSA 2020 weeks 2 and 3

Since I created the flowchart to use CSA veggies I thought I'd show how we're using it this winter.

We are a ways into this season so let's do a little catchup by revisiting weeks 2 and 3.

Week 2

What was in it and how'd you use it?

• 1 Butternut Squash - Roasted as a side
• 1 Buttercup OR Acorn Squash - Unfortunately our squash went bad
• 2 Walla Walla Sweet Onions - Roasted and as a side for various things throughout the week.
• 1 bunch Microgreens - A tiny bad of microgreens sure goes a long ways, these ended up in salads, on top of avocado toast and in tacos at one point trying to use them up.
• 1 head of Lettuce - Salad, it's classic.
• .5 lbs Carrots - These got roasted and laid over a little whipped ricotta with ranch dressing seasoning and sprinkled with celery salt for a play on carrots, celery and ranch. We fancy it up from time to time.

Week 3

What was in it?

• 1 lb Potatoes
• .5 lb Cipollini Onions - roasted along with the onions and then mixed into tacos.
• .5 lb Mushrooms - Made into lettuce wraps along with some leftover chicken.
• 1 head Lettuce - The lettuce part of lettuce wraps.
• 1 lb Red Beets - Because not every beet needs to be roasted these got shredded and turned into slaw.
• 1 head Garlic - This wasn't a normal sized head of garlic, it was a MONSTER and so we roasted it and mixed the roasted cloves into butter to go on some veggies, mayo and pasta throughout the week.
• 1 jar Essential Kraut - It's still hanging out in the fridge but so far this has been awesome with some brats we grilled. It gets randomly nice in Colorado in January and when it does you grill!
