Almost forgot - here's this past week's veggie haul:
I've been making romaine-and-arugula salads, once adding sliced radish, once adding toasted pecans. I made the ravioli soup again, and also made a zucchini-chard frittata with garlic and parmesan cheese. I also cut up some rosemary for a stewed chicken (done in the solar oven!) and will probably add last week's peas when I make that into pot pie (which I also may do in the solar oven!)
We had our first CSA casualty: last week's spinach rotted before I could make it into spinach-ricotta calzones. Lesson: cook the spinach early in the game, as it won't last.
Also, made a lovely applesauce-pecan bread in the solar oven. Looks like a few good solar days coming up, if only I can catch them! Maybe I'll put up the clothesline and dry today's round of diapers outside!
- Snow peas
- Arugula
- Swiss chard
- Zucchini
- Garlic
- Mixed herbs (rosemary, thyme, and oregano)
- New red potatoes
- Cherries (low or no spray)
