Week 20 Vegetable Delivery


October 9, 2015
Week 20

Here are some of the items you may be receiving in your delivery this week:
Red Curly Kale, Acorn Squash, Leek, Peppermint Swiss Chard, Heirloom Tomatoes, Celery, Culinary Sage

Happy Thanksgiving!

I hope all of you have a fantastic holiday filled with laughter and great food.
Try this week’s sage with the Turkey, here is my favorite way of preparing it for the oven:

The acorn squash is super easy. Cut in half, place cut side down in a baking dish and add some water to the pan. Bake at 350 until softened. The boys and I like ours with salt and a little butter.

Kale makes a great side dish. We usually keep it really simple but for a little extra flavour:
Rip the kale leaves off the stems and roughly chop. Set aside.
Sauté a couple cloves of finely sliced garlic cloves over medium heat with a splash of olive oil. Once the garlic is fragrant (happens quite fast) add ½ cup vegetable stock or water and the chopped kale. Toss to combine and cover, cooking for about 5 minutes. Remove cover and stir occasionally until all the liquid is evaporated. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Try adding a couple tablespoons of red wine vinegar.

As always if you have any questions please feel free to contact me.
Your Farmer,
Amber
