Week 9 CSA

Week 9 (August 5-11): green peppers, cucumbers, zucchini, eggplant, cherry tomatoes, regular tomatoes, 1 zebra tomato (so cool!), corn on the cob, peaches

Monday- Wednesday: Leftovers from the weekend.  We had a LOT.  Eating the peaches as is.

Thursday: Uh, was going to make ratatouille, but we lost power all day.  Oh well.

Friday: Mexican blackened corn using the corn on the cob and one of the bell peppers.  Definitely making this to go with fish tacos from now on.  It was tricky cutting the corn off the cob without kernels spraying everywhere, but good to have a change of pace from just eating it baked.  Also made Fried Green Zucchini using the zucchini and some stale bread.  Very good, but would be better if there was a way to not be so soggy.  Also was not exactly like fried green tomatoes, like it promised.

Saturday: Out all day for a party

Sunday: Finally made the ratatouille from the Simply in Season (we got ours at Ten Thousand Villages) cookbook using the eggplant, zucchini, green bell peppers, tomatoes, and could have used the basil from last week had I made it earlier.  This recipe was perfect for this week!  We use this cookbook a lot, as its perfect for the farmer’s market.
