Week One : Vine Ripe Farm CSA

As the first week of our CSA membership comes to a close and I am thinking about how excited I am about what I might get tomorrow when I pick up my Week 2 share, I realize I really should have taken pictures of what I got and what I made!  (Lesson learned, I'll be sure to do it this week.)

So, sans photos - Here is how week one 'looked'

Filling for Enchiladas

• 1 bag of loose leaf lettuce (it made 4 big dinner salads)
• 1 head of red leaf lettuce
• 1 bunch of Russian kale
• 1 large bunch of chives
• 1 bag of spinach
• 1 small bunch of green garlic
• 1 medium 'head?' of pac choi 

From this share we have enjoyed:

• 4 large (Applebee's copycat) oriental chicken style salads (meal size) (2 dinners, and left overs the next day)
• 3 medium lunch sized Greek salads
• Dinner veggie and herb fritatta (Grayson's request!)
• 2 dinners + lunch leftovers for 1 - Korean Vegetable Pancakes (packed full of chives and grilled pac choi)
• Saute of kale, Italian sausage, and gnocchi  (we made a few small changes, but this is a great starting point recipe)(enough for dinner and left overs)

We haven't used thee green garlic yet, but I am thinking it will go on the grill this weekend along side some steaks.
