I hope everyone had a fabulous Independence Day! We start back up with veggie boxes this week, which means it's time to plan out what to do with all of that wonderful produce! Please remember this list is subject to change a bit depending on availability & farming conditions. Also note, we have switched our family to the bi-weekly plan, so I will not be writing out another plan until the week of July 20th. Most of these recipes are vegan or vegan friendly.
Large Shares
Green Onions
Fennel Bulb
Thyme
Baby Watermelon
Summer Squash
Meyer Lemons
Imperator Carrots
Romaine Lettuce
Ruby Lettuce
Green Bush Beans
Rainbow Swiss Chard
Ruby Beets
Cucumbers
Italian Basil
Golden Nugget Mandarin Oranges
Hass Avocado
Baby Watermelon & Oranges will be individual snacks, as well as a few Avocados - we just grab a spoon and eat it plain!
I also cut up the Cucumbers for snacking. They are wonderful dipped in hummus. Check out this You Tube Video on how to cut & seed them to reduce the gassy affects.
Salad made with Ruby Lettuce, Fennel Fronds, Green Onion, and some Orange slices. I'll probably also throw in some dried cranberries and whatever nuts we have on hand.
Don't forget to drink your Lemon water every day!
Carrot Beet Juice - I'll just be throwing these in our Vitamix.
Cheesy Summer Squash Spirals - I'll be using some vegan cream cheese mixed with some of the Thyme & Basil. Great appetizer!
Scrambled Eggs Over Fresh Sliced Tomatoes & Basil - Make it a breakfast for dinner night!
Orange Scented Green Beans with Toasted Almonds (scroll to end of page for this one - other recipes listed here too!)
Orecchiette with Roasted Fennel & Sausage - I'm cooking this one up again, using some vegan sausage.
Neely's Chickpea, Ham, & Swiss Chard Soup - For the vegan option, use vegan ham. Whole Foods has it.
