On this very hot day in May I picked up our second box from Spiralpath Farm CSA. This one was lighter than last week so I knew it was full of greens – like I suspected last week’s would be. No picture this week since all you’d see is a bunch of green!
What we got this week was: 3 pints strawberries, 1 bag baby arugula, 1 bag baby spinach, radishes, bunched spinach (it is huge!), red oakleaf lettuce bunch and green boston lettuce bunch.
Lots of salads this week.
We did make the Colcannon recipe last Saturday when we had family visiting and it was a hit. I used smoked sausage and mild cheddar cheese.
Basically you make mashed potatoes. While they are cooking you cook off some sausage with garlic and onion. Then you add a bunch of spinach to wilt down. You spread the sausage/spinach mix in the bottom of a greased 9×13 pan, cover with mashed potatoes and then top with shredded cheese. Bake at 375 or so until cheese is melted, about 30 min. It was awesome!
