C!S!A!

This summer, I signed up for a half-share from Lancaster Farm Fresh CSA. This is my first time participating in a CSA. It has been a challenge at times, but it is has been really fun to figure out how to eat everything. I love the surprise of what I'll be getting each week. Spring/early summer has not surprisingly yielded many lettuces and kale and scallions and garlic scapes. I'm pretty tired of what I've been receiving because it feels like the same thing every week, but I know this is just the beginning.

Here are some things I've made with CSA goodies:

Garlic scape hummus with cucumber rounds to dip with
Red Curry with tofu, yellow squash, scallions, and cilantro
Kale chips with lots of garlic salt and nutritional yeast
Butterhead salad with homemade creamy ranch
Collard rolls with tempeh, scallions, and peanut sauce
Strawberry compote on waffles
Strawberry rhubarb crisp (x2!)
Things that will be happening soon: Caramelized onions on pizza, raw shredded beets with goddess dressing

More to come!
Maybe one day I will post a picture.
