All this nice weather has been keeping me busy and not in the mood to cook. I have been doing my best, but I still feel overwhelmed. I didn't realize how much I would have to be home and plan to cook all the food that I need to eat. Working second shift isn't helping either. I did manage to make a fantastic meal for my friends, it was based on a repeat of the cous cous dish I made a few weeks ago. I feel like I wasted a lot last week, some peas, and the turnips and chard. I did better this week at storing the food that I couldn't eat and keeping it fresh for the next week. My box had lots of great stuff!
1 head of romaine lettuce (which I forgot and it gave me a chance to catch up on eating the salad I had left over from the last 3 weeks!!)
1 bunch of beets
1 bunch of turnips
1 HUGE zucchini (traded for a bag of peas I didn't need)
2 small zucchini's
1 yellow squash
2 pickling cucumbers
1 bunch garlic scapes
1 huge bunch of scallions
I also had quite a few salads and ended up only eating a couple of turnips so they will be finished next week. I also made a delicious pesto with garlic, basil and walnuts that was a nice change from all the other pesto's I have been eating. Since I am writing this the day I got week 5's pick-up, I will keep this short and look forward to doing much, much better.
