Sweet basil and sweet onions
Hi Friends,
Nothing says summer like the spicy smell of basil, which you will find a small bouquet of in your bag this week. Another new item this week is our first harvest of sweet onions. Say good-bye to the peas! They had a great season, but with warmer weather coming on, they have to make way for snap beans. In this week’s bag you will find…
- Spinach (bunched)
- Salad Mix
- Shell Peas
- Sugar Snap Peas and Yellow Snow Peas
- Basil
- Kohlrabi
- Radicchio or Fennel
- Summer Squash
Meals we made this week…
Vietnamese Spring Rolls (lots of our veggies sliced up and wrapped in rice paper, dipped in a peanut sauce)
Killa Stir-fry (sugar snap peas, sweet onion, basil, sprouted corn tortilla, scrambled egg, Bekana Asian cabbage)
Hamburger, peas and potatoes (Veggie burger sautéed with sweet onion, solar oven cooked new potatoes, all simmered with a milk sauce with fresh peas added)
What did you do with your share of the harvest? Tell us in the comments below.
Peace,
Johnny
