Dad’s Power Sandwiches (and some GAPS support)

A couple of weeks ago it was pretty warm and we had a bunch of veggies on hand that needed to get eaten up. Those, along with homemade bread from a neighbor, came together to make my Dad’s Power Sandwiches, which I shared the recipe for at Plan to Eat.

And for those who are attempting to heal their guts via the GAPS diet, Erin at Plan to Eat is writing all about her journey on the blog as well.

This Week's CSA – I'm Living A Dream

Basil, dill, parsley, red leaf lettuce, beets & greens, collards, kohlrabi, fresh peas, red potatoes, kale, summer onions, fava beans, yellow squash, and garlic. Garlic that my toddler took a bite out of with a great big smile and said “that’s good gahlic.” Picking up our CSA share every week really is exciting. By Monday…

A Menu Planning System for Summer

{click here to download} I find that planning our weekly menus saves time, money and energy. During this busy time of gardening, harvesting and preserving there are even more obstacles to overcome. For one I am currently inundated with produce from our csa, our garden (well, sort of), and the farmers market. In order to…

How To Use Greens That Are Past Their Prime

When you have lots of greens – both for cooking and salads – it is sometimes hard to use them up before they start to wilt. This occurred this past week after we picked up loads of lettuce and cooking greens from our csa only for me to fall sick on Saturday and Sunday. With…
