Carole's Concontions

On our way home from the CSA our bags were brimming with colorful, fresh produce including beets, zucchini, cherries, spinach and amazing salad greens.  Using our best concocting skills, the idea is to include these foods in every meal you enjoy throughout the day and week.  Creative simplicity is the name of the game here.

A favorite for the beets is to roast them with olive oil, rosemary, salt and pepper and serve them over salad greens with goat cheese.  Olive oil and balsamic vinegar for a light, summery dressing.

When thinking of zucchini, grandma knew it best.  Sauteed with onions and whatever herbs are on hand, zucchini is the perfect side dish to the whatever you got going on the grill.

The perfect partner for the farm fresh morning eggs would undoubtedly be the spinach that scrambles in oh so nicely. If you happen to have a little provolone cheese- even better!

Last, but certainly not least, fresh, organic cherries are best left on their own in a little bowl on the counter. No fumbling through the fridge or digging through cabinets is necessary to find that perfect afternoon snack anymore.

Happy Friday!
