More Greens!

I’m sorry I’ve been such a lazy blogger. Guess I’ve also been a lazy cook. I’m just enjoying the greens that come in my CSA box. This past weekend I got a beautiful bunch of greens, including Romaine lettuce, mustard greens, Red Russian kale, Swiss chard, cilantro, and turnips with tops.




I also got this….


… which I think is a Black Spanish radish. It’s the biggest radish I’ve ever seen! I haven’t cut into yet. It’s still sitting in my kitchen waiting for me to decide when and how to use it.
This particular dinner of greens was cooked with fresh onions and tomatoes and seasoned with a mustard sauce. Alongside is some lentils and rice.


I’m sure you are all as busy as I am these days. I have a party and a cookie swap to bake for, and another Challenge coming up, so I will be posting some yummy treats soon!

It looks kind of like a big rutabaga to me. But I could be wrong.
Glad you're enjoying your greens! I can't get enough of them.

I love greens! I wish our farmer's market was open in the winter so I could access fresh, local greens.

You're so lucky to still be getting those wonderful CSA boxes. You know I love the simple foods you make with the CSA veggies. The dishes always looks so fresh and nourishing.

I'm not sure you can be both too busy to cook AND lazy!

I have totally fallen in love with greens since beginning the leaning towards vegetarianism. Kale is one of the best creations ever in life.

Lovely greens! Seeing such lush leaves like that makes me want a big salad. :)
