OK, just how to cope with all this produce? Here's the ideas I've got, I'm grateful we have a party this weekend to help with the produce :)
- Raw kale salad will use up the 2 bunches of kale easily
- Tortilla soup (cilantro, zucchini, limes, carrots, celery, aromatics)
- Jicama Salad (if it is still in good shape when I go to peel)
- potato salad for the 4th of July
- Miso Udon Stew (broccoli, carrots, shallot)
- Daikon & Carrot Salad
- Garlic spear pesto
- Lots of fruit salad
- Cabbage & Pea salad
- Big stir-fry (more broccoli, chard, greens from garden)
- Big green salad for the 4th of July
