Tonight's dinner - Black sea bass topped with local radish and pea shoots, local pea risotto, and local spinach



I made a simple lemon vinaigrette for the raw radish / pea shoot salad and then also drizzled it over the fish once it was on the plate.

For the spinach, I sauteed 2 garlic cloves in olive oil and then added a splash of whole milk, plain greek yogurt, and a handful of grated parmesan salt and pepper.

Spinach Cheesy Mac and Cheese


The kids(and Dan)loved this lunch I called, "Spinach Cheesy Mac and Cheese"

Whole wheat Pasta
Grated Cheese - 1 to 2 cups of what ever you like. I used cheddar and mozzzarella
1 pound of washed raw spinach ground in a food processor and mixed into the mixture of cooked pasta, 1 tablespoon of butter, cheese and a splash of milk.

Strawberry Rhubarb Crumble



Found a great recipe on Smitten Kitchen I used corn starch instead of flour - and I cooked the rhubarb for a few minutes on the stove in lemon juice and a teaspoon of sugar before adding to the baking dish.

Got the rhubarb from the farm today!

Butterfly in Our Driveway

We saw this butterfly today as we got into the car to go to the farm.
