Week 21- 1 more to go!


Hi everyone,
So we're down to the penultimate week of veggies! Hard to believe- but the freezing wind and rain and hail have made it a little easier to accept. :>) But despite the cold weather, we have some nice veggies for you this week.

Here's what's in your bags:
Leeks
Acorn Squash and/or Delicata Squash
Kale
Tomatoes
Kennebec White Potatoes
Green Peppers
Eggplant

Lots of great things to cook with these- here are a few ideas for the potatoes and leeks-
A classic Potato Leek Soup recipe:

Or baked in a Potatoe Leel Gratin:

And a flexible recipe that can use the leeks, peppers, eggplant, tomatoes and potatoes:
A Turkish vegetable casserole called Turlu Turlu. Sue made it and it was a big success. The flavors only got better with time!
