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.

Sunday, October 2: True Confessions

Harry and I messed up this week. We were late to get our veggie box, and they had locked the door where we pick up our weekly supply! Mercifully this happened during a week where we've been totally swamped  with work and life, so instead of feeling deprived, this is a welcome respite from melons and onions. Speaking of...we still have our watermelon and an onion or two from last week. So we finally made:


Grilled Chilean Sea Bass served with Watermelon Salsa


I found this recipe in a desperate internet search for new watermelon recipes, particularly ones that bordered on savory. EatingWell, as usual, came to the rescue with this delicious Watermelon Salsa recipe! I used slightly more watermelon than it calls for, yellow onion as opposed to red, and ReaLime juice instead of fresh.


I put Harry in charge of the fish. Instead of grilling it alone on our roofdeck, he decided to use our enamel grill pan and this Grilled Sea Bass recipe.


What's left?
- only garlic and 1 onion that are just waiting to be used for pizza night this week! Success!
