This Week's CSA


This week's CSA contained green and red apples, spinach, lettuce, pears, sweet potatoes, carrots, and bread from the Breadery.
I think I'm going to make some apple butter. The carrots will become part of a stir fry or similar, the sweet potatoes into sweet potato burritos, lettuce in a salad, and I'm not sure what to do with the spinach. There are many options, but maybe I'll find something new to do.

I love spinach but sometimes I'm not exactly in the mood for it. When that's the case (or if I have spinach that's on its last day) I like to grind it up with garlic and some olive oil to make a pesto sauce out of it. If I'm not going to use it right away I just portion it out into plastic bags and lay them flat to store in the freezer.

The sauce is great over pasta with roasted red peppers or fresh tomatoes and some turkey sausage sliced into rounds if you want to add meat.
