Week 3 HAPPY SOLSTICE!
We welcome the return of the sun! Some sunny afternoons here in the Cascade foothills are finally warming things up.. The long-awaited snap peas are so sweet and delicious! We've been enjoying them with many meals. It feels luxurious to have local strawberries, snap peas, and foraged Morel mushrooms! I highly recommend hitting up your favorite mushroom person for some good eats. Father's Day inspired a savory strawberry and Morel sauce which I am still tweaking and will share with you soon.
This week we'll have a nice variety for you. Some sweet and delicious Broccoli for everyone. Also some little spring onions for zesting up your meals. Strawwberries will again sweeten up your shares. Even though the Solstice is finally here, the seasonal reality of the Northwest is still late Spring. So greens are what we have an abundance of. As the days get warmer, creative salads seem to be perfect eating. Here are 2 quick salads I've whipped up over the past couple of weeks. Orzo Salad with Spring Veggies and Chickpea Salad
