Sometimes a CSA pick up is just like the grocery shopping joke: “I just spent $100 at the supermarket and I didn’t get anything to eat!” Though I definitely ordered food to eat from this week’s pick up, the items I chose were much more snack and side dish focused than things I’d use as a main dish.
It’s all good though – as you’ll notice in my plan below, I kept things pretty simple for the week. This time of year, I’m happy to take advantage of offerings with short availability (snap peas, cherries, green beans). There’s plenty of time remaining this summer for zucchini, eggplant and cabbage.
