One thing that I've noticed is that if I don't take the time to make a plan, there is never any possible way I'll use up all the veggies. Even with the plan, things like green beans go gooey... so here's this week's plan, which actually tries to use up most of last week's box, too. Does anyone want to come to dinner? We're going to need some help!
The Plan:
Day 1: Grilled Steaks, Sautéed Kale with Fennel and Onions, and Roasted Root Vegetables
This recipe will use a sweet potato from last week's box, and kale, fennel, potatoes, garlic and beets from this week's box.
Day 2: Pizza with Sweet Peppers and Tomatoes, Mixed Green Salads with Persimmon and Pomegranate, and Pear-Apple Crisp
This meal will use up peppers from this and last week's box, tomatoes and apples from last week's box, persimmons, Asian pears, and pomegranate from this week's box. And garlic, though I've lost track of when we got our garlic...
Day 3: Roasted Green Beans, Braised Cabbage, and TBD Chicken Dish
This meal will use green beans from last week's box, and cabbage from this week's box.
