Long Time No See (CSA Menu Plan #18)

Published on December 11, 2014 By Emily. Updated on December 11, 2014

The good news is, the grad school semester is over.  Last week was so busy, between finishing my final project (which I of course left until the last minute) and normal life and holiday festivities.  But there is light in the craziness tunnel and I think things are settling down. Thank goodness.

Here’s what we picked up a week ago:

CSA pick up 12.3.14

For whatever reason, we’re going through our share really quickly this week.  It probably doesn’t help that we’ve been eating cabbage and lettuce salads with carrots (and hard boiled eggs and blue cheese!).  At the moment, we have the beet, a kohlrabi, 2 carrots and some garlic and onions left.  That’s not going to last us the week.  As a result, I’ve planned next week’s menu around recipes that aren’t so reliant on fresh vegetables, though I think we’ll probably grab some more at the Williamstown Holiday Farmers Market this weekend, at least for sides.

Also, let’s hope that all the leftovers I planned for next week will result in less crazy evenings.

The Plan:
Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday
Roasted Butternut Squash with Caramelized Onions, Gorgonzola and Crispy Fried Sage (Closet Cooking) leftover butternut squash kohlrabi, cabbage and carrot stir fry (using a variation from this recipe as sauce) Brussels sprouts and potato hash Lentil Sloppy Joes with frozen broccoli and vegan cheese sauce leftover lentil sloppy joes breakfast for dinner … to be determined
Baked tofu, with some sort of vegetables “Carol’s” Tarascan Soup Leftover soup Martha’s Macaroni and Cheese (Smitten Kitchen) Leftover mac and cheese Dinner out

CSA pick up!

    Mmm Brussels sprouts. I made roast sprouts with a tangy fish-sauce vinaigrette last week and they were life-changing. I hope you enjoy yours, along with the rest of your produce!

      Ooo..that sounds interesting! I don’t think I tried Brussels sprouts until a few years ago and I am obsessed. I’m going to be really sad when they’re out of season again!

In January I decided that one of my "deliberate" s In January I decided that one of my "deliberate" sub-goals for 2021 would be to figure out the best pizza dough recipe and topping combinations for my family. We've had pizza night on the menu for a long time, but I knew that I could improve the pizzas that were coming out of my oven. Each week (or so) I've been sharing in my Stories the pizzas I've made with various stores and toppings. I am eight weeks in I've already learned a lot about technique and what I prefer in a pizza crust and toppings. I'm also looking forward to seeing what the rest of the year will hold in my pizza making studies. Check out my highlights for all the pizzas so far!

But the images are accurate and nicely summarize the year - take out from local establishments (@aokberkshirebbq, @thebreakroomgw, @northadamsfarmersmarket), #RelishmentsBakes projects, the natural beauty of the Berkshires and our successful container garden.

Apparently, in the weirdness that is 2020, posting Apparently, in the weirdness that is 2020, posting to my Instagram feed was one of the things that didn't make the cut. There are more items than I'd prefer in that category, but recently I've felt like I'm beginning to get my feet firmly planted beneath me again. This fall was so busy with learning how to teach remotely and parent 2 children well. I don't anticipate that life will ever feel not busy, but I've been able to carve out some time lately for activities I've been missing. Making bread is one of those activities. Hopefully, more posts in the feed will be more frequent going forward.

#sponsored All the time we've spent at home lately #sponsored All the time we've spent at home lately has definitely had me looking to expand the snack options in my pantry.  I jumped at the chance to try these @sunmaid Sour Raisins  and they immediately became one of my daughter's favorite snacks. She likes them because they're reminiscent of candy, I like them because they're technically fruit and they come prepackaged for easy snacking and taking on the go. I was pleasantly surprised at how tasty they are!

This weekend's weather was amazing and my family e This weekend's weather was amazing and my family embarked on the only way to kick off fall: we went apple picking at Jaeschke Orchards in Adams.  The parking lot was full, but out in the orchard we hardly came across any other groups.  The trees were heavy with apples and we quickly filled our bag. Looking forward to apples for snacks, pie, crisp and turnovers in the coming weeks.
