Rutabaga
Well i have already made a couple of things!
here is a plate of both mashed rutabaga AND rutabaga fries that i ate with a veggie burger patty
And this is Dijon Dill Green Beans from Blissful Bites cookbook by Christy Morgan
my son loves little purple potatoes so I am going to make this Creamy Dill Potato Salad with more dill -I also think i'm going to experiment with the dill & lime to make some salad dressings, i'm getting into making my own dressings, they are so much tastier!
I already used the Chard but i forgot a picture! I made Chard with Capers & Olives from the Viva Vegan! cookbook.
I'm not sure what to do with the Kohlrabi but this WEBSITE has some ideas - right now i like the idea of adding it raw to a salad, but i need to investigate more
Collards - i am going to use Blissful Bites again - she has this great recipe that i used before with a different green called African Collard Stir Fry, it has orange juice and carrots too!
Broccoli - again from Blissful Bites (i really love this cookbook) - Broccoli Salad with creamy Mustard Dressing, has a carrot in it too, maybe i will sub Kohlrabi for the radish or just add it!
My Kohlrabi was skinny and long instead of round. I don't know if that's why, but it was too tough to eat. I used the box recipe and cooked it for much longer than they said necessary, but I gave up. Even the blender couldn't chop it up to add to the broccoli/rutabaga soup (great flavor, but needs a real food processor to get the right texture). Overall, though, I loved my first local box. Thanks for all the recipe ideas!
