Stew and Stir Fry

Up and down weather brings changes to the types of foods I desire to prepare and consume. My root crops, with the exception of potatoes, are starting to build up, so I need to figure out how to use them. If anybody has a good idea for the turnips or any other crops, I would love to hear from you - please email me at lindadansbury@comcast.net and please put Anchor Run in the subject line.

Romaine, garlic - decided to make a classic Caesar Salad with that beautiful head of lettuce. I just took a recipe that looked good off of the internet.

Potatoes, onion, kale - made a Portugese Sausage, Kale and Potato Soup using a combination of linquisa and chorizo soup. It turned out delicious! There is a Portugese Kale Stew on this site that would give similar flavors. Yum...

Onions, celery, bok choy, garlic, greens - made a cashew chicken stir fry using several farm ingredients - we incorporated the celery leaves into the mix - love these fresh ingredients - so much flavor!

Greens, onions, garlic - made one of the most delicious lasagnas I have ever made - it took a long time, but was worth it. The addition I made to the recipe was to saute a bunch of chopped greens - mainly escarole and Swiss chard because I wanted it to be mild - put a layer of greens in the middle of the lasagna. It was so delicious!

Leeks (the rest of what I had), garlic and...more greens! - made a chicken stew that was flavored with oregano, apple cider vinegar, paprika, red pepper flakes and incorporated a bit of sausage. Another wonderful meal that provided leftovers.
