My CSA box this week of course didn’t disappoint. In my box was
green onions
carrots
3 tomatoes
3 eggplant
4 zucchini
4 peppers
1 watermelon
4 peaches
I went to town on my box today, as usual. I don’t think I ate a big meal all day long. I just snacked.
Breakfast: 1.5 banana muffins, 1/2 cup plain greek yogurt, leftover spinach feta strawberry salad…random, I know.
Snack: 3 peppers with hummus
Lunch: 4 eggs with cheese, a peach, grapes
Snack: soy nuts, almonds, and chocolate chips
Dinner: 2 eggplant, onions, and 1 chicken breast baked with cheese, homemade bread with pumpkin butter
Snack: popcorn, shared an apple with Alyssa, spoonful of peanut butter.
I only sat at the table for dinner tonight. All other “meals” were picked at throughout the day. I have actually been eating most of the fruits and veggies plain, instead of making meals out of them. They are just so good and fresh, I don’t want to ruin them with seasonings or anything. I am going to be seriously sad when my CSA box stops in a couple weeks!
That’s the way I eat on weekends – picking through it.
I feel like I eat that way right after i grocery shop too because there is so much I want to eat, so i have a little of everything!
Peaches! Oh man, what I wouldn’t give for some more of those…
This week’s CSA link party is up and ready for your link. Come and add your post when you get a chance…http://inherchucks.com/2012/09/13/whats-in-the-box-43/. Looking forward to seeing you there!
The peaches are the best part of my box every week!
I’ve been doing a lot of picking throughout the day, too, but am trying to make an effort to sit with L when she sits. Dinner we always eat at the table, so that helps. Just saw your yogurt pancakes- I need to try those soon!
we sit at breakfast and dinner always. Sometimes lunch too, but i often pick at lunch instead as I am getting the kids lunch ready and cleaning up. I need to get out of the habit!
