CSA Box #14

I'm writing this really late.  CSA box #14 included:  Jimmy Nardello sweet peppers, 1 Japanese cucumber, 2 zucchini, tomatoes, green kale, yellow potatoes, 2 yellow bell peppers, green beans, 1 cantaloupe, white onions, mixed summer apples, 1 eggplant, 1 head lettuce, Rick Bayless's heirloom yellow tomatilloes, mixed cherry tomatoes, Italian garlic, cranberry beans, okra, red vein sorrel.

 

I made shakshuka out of the cranberry beans, a few of the sweet peppers, an onion, and all the tomatoes in my possession (including some from last week and some from our neighbor).  I made the zucchini into zucchini fries, tore up the kale and froze it for breakfast smoothies, and cut up the melon and cucumber for snacking.  The sorrel will go into salads (along with the lettuce) and probably also into the freezer for breakfast smoothies.  The eggplant became Korean eggplant tacos last night.  A lot of the garlic became garlic knots.


Tonight I'm making the okra, green beans, and the last of my potatoes into dinner.


I don't really know what to do with the tomatilloes or yellow bell peppers.  I'd dice the bell peppers and freeze them for soups or whatever later, but the freezer is already fairly full.
