Today’s City Commons box includes wonderful summer produce: red ripe slicing tomatoes, a quart of yellow cherry tomatoes, chard, hot peppers, and basil. I’m seeing cool weather crops again, as well: kohlrabi, beets, kale, and peppery arugula.
Altogether, it’s a lovely box. I’m planning to freeze kale for fall and winter soups. The cherry tomatoes, though, are nature’s candy: best for snacking on, just as they are. More ideas here:
- spiced beets
- rosemary roasted beets
- beet, walnut, & feta salad
- basil cubes to freeze
- pasta with arugula, garlic, & tomatoes
- sliced kohlrabi with garlic and white bean dip
