Menu Plan Monday – June 7, 2010

June 7, 2010 by angelaskitchen 5 Comments

Last Wednesday was our first CSA box pick up.  I was so excited to see what we got from Featherstone Farm!  The first week included salad greens, red butter lettuce, spinach, asparagus, radishes, and cilantro.  Yum!  To use up our bounty we ate a ton of salad (of course).  The asparagus I roasted on Friday with a bit of olive oil, salt and pepper and served (with more salad) with peanut chicken satay.  With the cilantro I made marinaded beef fajitas and a cilantro dressing (recipe below).  With half of the radishes I made half a recipe of bread-and-butter-radishes (a refrigerator pickle).  I have been using the spinach for salads, and a bit torn up here and there to add greens to cooked meals.  The radish tops were a bit nibbled on by some little critter, but after cleaning them and slicing thinly, they were stir fried up with roasted garlic to add to some morning eggs.  Tomorrow night we will finish off the spinach at dinner with some poppy seed dressing.

We are big veggie eaters and I am very glad we got the big box.  Our next pick up is Wednesday, which can’t come soon enough for me! This week it looks like we are getting red oakleaf lettuce, asparagus, spinach, green garlic, salad greens, dill, rhubarb, green beans, and garlic scapes.  Woo!

    Looks like a great week. Happy Birthday to you and your husband! Do you have a recipe for Gen. Tso's Chicken? It's one of my husband's favorites, but I've never made it myself. I'm hosting the GF menu swap next Monday with a strawberry theme. Love to have some strawberry recipes to share. :)

      I feel like I was getting close, but set it aside for a bit. I am hoping to get back to the croissant soon. I'll let you all know how it goes. :)

I am so happy when someone tries one of my recipes. I do ask, though, that you link back to the recipe instead of posting it on your site unless you have made major changes. I have big plans for some of my recipes. Please remember, recipes are for personal use only. I do NOT give permission for any recipe, article, photo, etc. partially or in whole from angelaskitchen.com to be used for profit on another site, in published medium of any kind, or to be copied in part or whole. You MUST contact me for permission if you would like to use a recipe on a paid/membership website, in a restaurant, store, bakery, etc. for profit even with your adaption (this includes any “clubs”, membership sites, etc. that repackage other bloggers work for a fee, even if the original had been adapted or put into another form). THANK YOU FOR UNDERSTANDING. 🙂
