Winter CSA 2020 Week 7 - Dad those carrots are purple!

Week 7

What was in it?

I realize I'd been leaving the farm names off these lists till now. These farmers are incredible delivering fresh produce throughout the year.

  • 1 lb Beets - Hobbs Farms
    • While we really enjoy a roasted beet salad we shredded these again to be a raw side throughout the week.
  • 1 lb Purple Carrots - Hobbs Farms
    • Turns out in a stir fry purple carrots turn everything purple. So we had a purple pork and carrot stir fry one night this week.

Purple Carrot and Pork Stir fry

  • 2 Walla Walla Onions - Hoffman Farms
    • 2 Walla Wallas turned out to be 2 pounds of small onions. These are getting randomly roasted when other veggies do or sliced up in to stir fry.
  • 1 bunch Microgreens - Grow Girl Organics
    • That tiny bag of micro greens sure does last! I topped cottage cheese, avocado toast, salads and sandwiches multiple times with this bag. We learned that we all like micro greens but our favorite are the sunflower ones we can get in the summer at the farmers market.
  • 1 head Lettuce - Hoffman Farms
    • Who doesn't love a fresh salad in winter? My family after having it every week for 2 months. So instead we used this up in sandwiches and I had BBQ Pork wraps with some as lunches.
  • 4 oz Arugula - Tasty Acres
    • There is nothing better than an arugula, parmesan and lemon salad and I think I ate the whole bag that way.
  • 4 oz Spinach - Tasty Acres
    • We have been trying to eat more vegetarian lately and this green spaghetti does the trick for us.

  • 1 oz Dried Mushrooms - Mile High Fungi
    • These are just hanging out in the pantry for now for a rainy day . . or something.
So how would you have used this week's load?
