Ravings of a Textual Deviant

Still left over from Week 1 - three small beets, half a head of cabbage, half a head of lettuce, and a small green bell pepper. I am of a mind to make colcannon with the remaining cabbage, and roast the beets with rosemary and olive oil (small portion won’t matter, as spouse doesn’t care for beets anyway), and serve the lot of it with some sort of fish.

Speaking of which, remind me to post the fish taco recipe sometime.

New for Week 2 - two more small green bell peppers, a head of napa cabbage, two miniature Asian eggplants (bright, bright purple!) three small cucumbers, a zucchini, a pomegranate-shaped yellow squash, a handful of cherry tomatoes, fresh basil and parsley, and a hefty bag of mushrooms.

I think that the zucchini, squash, and peppers are going to end up in a chunky vegetable tomato sauce over pasta, and I’ll try something from my relatively-new Indian cookbook for the eggplant and napa cabbage. The cucumbers and tomatoes will probably end up in a salad with last week’s lettuce and some marinated mozzarella. And maybe I’ll break out the food processor for some homemade pesto sauce, using the herbs.
