I am looking forward to this week. After several weeks of chaos, the school year is really winding down, vacation is on the horizon and I’m quickly adjusting to the summer mindset. We had a bit of vegetables leftover at the end of the week – some lettuce, some radishes and turnips and some arugula. This week’s menu is a mix of that leftover stuff and the new vegetables we picked up on Friday.
The Pick Up
collard greens, bok choy, radishes, lettuce, spinach, kale (2 bunches), Hakeuri turnips, shallots, lettuce
The Plan
arugula and cheese pizza + side salads
