Goodbye February! (CSA Menu Plan #23 + 24)

Published on March 1, 2015 By Emily. Updated on February 28, 2015

Welcome to a very special 4 week edition of my CSA menu plan! I didn’t get a post up for the mid-month pick up, so I’m sharing the past 2 weeks of meals and the next 2 weeks today.  There’s only one CSA distribution left for the season, which is a bummer.  I’m glad we’re going all the way to mid-March this year, but it’s going to feel like a long time, food-wise, before the beginning of the new season in June.

In other news that isn’t news, my planning mantras continue to be soup and leftovers.  I can only hope that weather gets warmer in March and then maybe I’ll have some interest in other meals.  For now, my menus may be repetitive, but they work.

Pick up #1:

CSA pick up 2.13.15

sweet meat squash, cabbage, butternut squash, spinach, apples, kohlrabi, beets, carrots, kabocha squash

Pick up #2:

csa pick up 2.27.15

potatoes (4 lbs), Gilfeather turnip, sweet meat squash, apples, garlic (lots!), spinach

The Plan:

Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday
Meeting + Dinner Dinner out (remember that time we spent all day painting?) Sweet Potato Lentil Curry from Food52
(previously frozen)
Roasted Kabocha squash + mixed grains Quarter Pounder Beet Burgers from Post Punk Kitchen + roasted butternut squash leftover burgers + roasted potatoes Roasted butternut squash + frozen vegetables
Fish and shredded cabbage fish tacos Sweet Meat Squash Soup + Herbed Yogurt Biscuits from The Kitchn leftover soup Turkey Taco Chili from Back to Her Roots + cornbread from How to Cook Everything Vegetarian Leftover chili frozen pierogies + homemade coleslaw frozen vegetable frittata + DIY tortilla chips
leftover frittata vegetable chickpea red curry over rice from Savvy Eat Lighter Baked Macaroni and Cheese with Spinach and Red Peppers from The Kitchn leftover macaroni and cheese vegetable barley soup leftover soup Sloppy Joes over potatoes + spinach salad
leftover Sloppy Joes and potatoes? Sweet Meat squash soup Pizza (toppings TBD) leftover pizza

Corn Fritters with Spiced Crema from What’s Gaby Cooking

We finally made it to the @berkshiremtdist tasting We finally made it to the @berkshiremtdist tasting room in Sheffield today after years of talking about it. The indoor and outdoor atmosphere was lovely and we took advantage of the complimentary tasting to try some of the products we haven't had before. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area and enjoy distilleries.

On Friday we headed to Springfield for an appointm On Friday we headed to Springfield for an appointment and made a day of it by visiting @forestparkzoo afterwards. For us, the Zoo in Forest Park's size, layout and number of animals (over 225 exotic and native animal residents) is the perfect size for our 2 and 5 year old kids. We went in the afternoon, when day camps were wrapping up and it wasn't busy overall. We were able to easily view all of the exhibits and let our children move at their own pace without interfering with other people. Despite the heat, the animals were pretty active and it was a joy to see my kids spot, identify and appreciate them.

Brian and I had lunch at the @firehousecafebistro Brian and I had lunch at the @firehousecafebistro in Adams today. We enjoyed falafel bites, cocktails, papas bravas, and a buttermilk chicken sandwich. All of the food was really delicious and the service was excellent, despite very limited staffing. The patio seating was fun for people watching and enjoying the sunshine. I highly recommend the Firehouse Cafe and Bistro if you're looking for a more upscale lunch or dinner in the northern Berkshires.

It's blueberry season in the Berkshires! My favori It's blueberry season in the Berkshires! My favorite girl and I headed to @mountainviewfarm413 this week to pick ours, as is our tradition. We had a great morning resulting in 7 pounds of berries. Some blueberries will be frozen and others turned into muffins, but most of them will be eaten just the way they are. The season is short, enjoy it while you can. @whitneysfarmmarket and @seconddropfarm are doing picky-your-own as well. 🫐

Tomato season is my favorite season. If there is t Tomato season is my favorite season. If there is the opportunity to eat something that features a combination of tomato, mozzarella and basil, chances are good that I'm ordering it. Yesterday I needed to make a dish to share for a church gathering so I put together this incredibly simple pasta salad. I hope it's useful to you during this time of summer heat and summer gatherings.

RECIPE:
1 lb pasta (I used bowties) 
7 oz fresh mozzarella
1 pint grape tomatoes 
30-50 fresh basil leaves 
1/4 cup olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste 

1. Cook pasta according to package instructions. Drain and place in a large bowl. 
2. Prep the other ingredients: cut the mozzarella cheese in bite size pieces if needed, quarter the grape tomatoes, finely cut the basil with scissors or a knife.
3. Add the quartered tomatoes, mozzarella and basil to the pasta. Drizzle the olive oil into the bowl and miX well.
4. Add salt and pepper to taste.
5. Enjoy!

This @smittenkitchen Zucchini and Ricotta Galette This @smittenkitchen Zucchini and Ricotta Galette is one of my favorite summer recipes. The crust is perfectly flaky and the mix of squash and cheese is delicious. I always use summer squash and my husband, who does not typically like summer squash, loves this galette. Though it takes a bit of planning ahead - the crust dough needs to rest in the fridge for an hour and the squash needs to be salted for 30 minutes, the recipe is straightforward and the final produce always impresses. I expect it will make another appearance on my table before the fall.
