I live in San Francisco, and my husband and I get a Terra Firma Farm CSA veggie box once a week. It has forced me to be mindful about what I cook, and to explore new recipes -- what do you do with persimmons? However, I find that most weeks I have some piece of greenery left wilting in the crisper, some piece of fruit molding in the fruit bowl. This blog signals a new commitment to using up all of the veggies. I will share recipes and ideas, and hope that you will share yours as well.

Tuesday, September 6: The Challenge

Leftover the day before we get our next veggie box are:
- 1/2 canteloupe
- 1/2 watermelon
- potatoes
- garlic
- basil

Think I will make a bread, melon and proscuitto salad tomorrow. Looking for ideas for potato dishes and novel uses for watermelon...

  1. Watermelon Lime Ricky!

    Cut up the uneaten watermelon. Throw it all into a blender, cuisinart or you can use an immersion blender. Blend until liquified (seeds and all). Pour watermelon puree through a strainer (or not) into a pitcher and store in the fridge. When you're ready for a refreshing drink, either pour over a glass of ice and drink itbstraight up or I often go half waltermelng juice, half seltzer + half a lime. Delish!
