A little taste of next week




So this post was supposed to be on the Slow Food Movement, but after some thought it seems like Slow Food would be better placed with a bit about growing, buying, going locals-- part of next week's segment.   Plus, we had to figure out how we were going to prepare all these vegetables from the Good Food Box for a mini potluck with guest reviewers (and a reappearance by Lisa)!

Let’s be straight up—Katie is not the best cook.  So if these veggies turn out, it’s probably because of the natural taste of this fresh-from-the farm produce (and the recipes suggested by her father).  If they don’t turn out… we’ll talk about the veggies and fruits before their roasted fates (as well as give Katie a hard time about her cooking).

Hold your breath and let’s hope for the best.  The veggies started out beautiful!  Let’s just hope they stay that way.

Happy greening!

  2. There are recipes for those beautiful carrot tops on line. Soup seems to the most popular use.

  3. Thanks for coming! It was a good time all around. And the fondue and all the other goodies... yum!

    A soup is such a good idea! I do have one bunch of carrots with their tops left. The other tops I've already composted in our Pedal to Petal bin (a post about this mobile composting service to come in the next couple weeks). Thanks for the suggestion!
