Dear CSA Member,
We have been having some beautiful weather these past few weeks! Cool mornings and warm afternoons. The sunshine has been so nice! You will have more fall greens in your share along with some heavy root crops such as carrots and sweet potatoes. This week you will be receiving the fall planting of lettuce! You can make a nice fresh salad this week or cook some of the greens! I have included some cooking tips below for some of this week’s greens.
Mustard Greens- Can be eaten fresh in a salad or cooked many ways. Click here for 10 Ways to Use Mustard Greens by Food & Wine.
Mustard can be cooked with a Casserole, Frittata, Italian Style, Indian Style and more!
Mizuna- Can be put in a fresh salad, tossed in with hot pasta and fresh parmesan cheese, added to a risotto or a stir-fry. Mizuna is also great in soups or you can just sauté with some fresh garlic.
Arugula- Eaten raw or cooked. Arugula has a slightly peppery taste that makes it more versatile. For cooking recipes click here.
