The CSA share really came through with some exciting summer produce this week, and lots of it! The tomatoes are particularly exciting to me this week, and look at those adorable squash!

1 head green cabbage – certified organic – Green Valley Organics
1 bunch Detroit red beets – certified organic – Farmdale Organics
3 candy onions – transitional – Taste of Nature Farm
2 green bell peppers – certified organic – Meadow Valley Organics
3 mixed yellow summer squash – certified organic – Goshen View Organics
3 mixed squash, marrow, zucchini – certified organic – Maple Lawn Organics
1 bag purple tomatillos – certified organic – Organic Willow Acres
7 red slicing tomatoes–transitional – White Swan Acres
1 bunch dandelion greens – certified organic – Hillside Organics
1 bunch parsley – certified organic – Back 40 Ranch

I still had a head of cabbage from last week, so decided to use it up for dinner tonight along with a fresh tomato that got a little damaged in the bike-basket transport from the CSA pick-up to my house. Cabbage, tomatoes, some leftover general tso’s tofu, and a big scoop of rooster sauce (chilis and garlic), and a wok. A simple meal - just as I wanted it.
