Springing Vegetables
The bounty of spring continues to rev up! This week’s CSA Organic Veggie Box was absolutely brimming with goodness. One of my favorite things was the phenomenal range of colors that are beginning to appear.
The beet stems and greens are the most brilliant fuchsia color. In fact they are so gorgeous I couldn’t bear to throw them away and plant to cook them this weekend. The swiss chard has bright red stems. The pears are deep burgundy and gold. And the asparagus (the first for me this season!) shows off its lovely green suit quite stunningly.
