• Add-on shares:
  • Fruit: not this week
  • Flowers: sunflowers or a mixed bouquet
  • Mushrooms: yellow oyster mushroom
  • Eggs: not mentioned in this week’s update from John, but assuming yes

For those with half shares, this is “A” week.

Serving Suggestions:

• Every year I remind our members of the Ratatouille recipe from America’s Test Kitchen which is a quintessential CSA recipe. You’ll have just about everything you need this week (but use canned tomatoes, not the fresh!).
• We should see some hearty greens for a few more weeks. If you’re looking for a use for this weeks swiss chard, try this white pizza from NYT Cooking. I had never made a white pizza and I surprised just how good it was. I made a few swaps: CSA spinach for the kale, half & half for the cream, and a cast iron skillet for the sheet pan. It made for a great new way to use up some greens that wasn’t just a salad or sauteed.
