My first CSA box arrived on my doorstep and I was really excited! I had too much to pack into my already packed fridge, it was the garden of Eden (eatin' !). The first that I used was the herb packet, that I put bouquet style in the fridge door and used some mint leaves in my jamica tea before I went to school. When I got home that night, I "harvested" the beet greens, washed and dried them and put the beets themselves in the pressure cooker. The next morning, I had beet greens instead of spinach in my egg white omelette. You know how much I love beet greens! Last night, I cooked half the carrots and all the rutabagas in the pressure cooker, but was too busy to enjoy them. I made a mushroom/beet green stir fry and put that over a tomato sauce and added a small salad for dinner. Of course, the salad had a cooked beet and cherry tomatoes and half an avocado (I know, we are sooooo lucky!). This morning I cut up one of the baby boy choys and cooked it with mushrooms in the big skillet. I added a third cup of egg whites and two chopped up cooked rutabagas and some hot sauce. Voila! A breakfast fit for a queen! I have discovered how delicious a rutabaga can be!
