CSA Farm Share 2013: Week 9

[surrealestate]

Just to get an idea of the abundance of this, the carrots alone, after the tops were removed, weighs 3.3 lbs. I love carrots, so this is awesome. The potato inspiration finally hit and between the weeks of them (which I mostly hadn't used yet aside from in curries), I made masala dosa at home, then a big batch of the aloo masala for a potluck cook-out, then pot pies to freeze, and the rest became home fries alongside breakfast wraps that included a tofu scramble with some of the other veggies. Nom, I say.

So far, the tomatoes are strictly bruschetta and sandwiches. Pretty sure this is always the time of year when I say I won't make sauce because I'm too busy eating them. Then eventually the huge quantities come in and I decide sure, let's make some sauce. Gotta decide when to grab a case. Also wondering if the corn hauls are going to up to their usual absurd numbers, and if so, should I make more corn salsa. It's nice to see my preserved stashes dwindle, but it makes me want to make more!
