Spring Meal

Tonight for supper:

  • steamed fiddleheads
  • wild rice with garlic
  • wilted spinach salad
  • broiled stuffed portabello mushrooms
  • fresh rhubarb cobbler

    The only thing I would change is the dressing for the wilted spinach salad--I'd never made one before, so found a dressing recipe in one of my cookbooks. It was much heavier on the oil and much lighter on the *zip* (vinegar, citrus, mustard, etc) than I prefer.

    I know summer is coming fast when I've had my first feed of fiddleheads. :o)

    Leftovers and Cobbler

    We ate leftover portabello meat pie tonight--I made it last night from last week's portabellos. I'd post the recipe, but I winged it so I really haven't a clue! LOL

    I made a plain pasta salad to go with it, and harvested the first of this year's rhubarb from the backyard to make a really yummy rhubarb cobbler.

    Delivery : May 6th - 12th

    186g salad greens
    71g microgreens
    35g baby red chard
    504g broccoli
    282g white radish
    171g snow peas
    128g turnip
    197g portabello mushroom
    408g sweet potato
    587g fingerling potatoes

    If nothing else, I can guarantee that I'll be making broccoli salad sometime this week as we've still some broccoli left from the last order (so I actually have enough to make the salad! LOL).
