Week 9 2012

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!!

We hope that this holiday week is wonderful and full of fun festivities for you and yours!
We are very excited to offer Sweet Corn this week- it is so yummy.  We had our first ears last night and they were delicious.   Actually, it was a fabulous local meal of Cedar Lake Fish caught that day, squash, green beans with roasted garlic, and corn.

The past few nights we have had great wildlife viewing in our yard... a barred owl.  She is so majestic and so much fun to watch.  Gabe, our intern, brought out his night vision glasses which provided great entertainment.  Ahh... country living. 

This week in the box:
Corn
Green Beans
Garlic
Tomatilloes
Parsley
Basil
Squash
Oregan
New Potatoes

We wish you a safe and happy holiday!

Recipe for Green Beans with Oregano. Why eat plain old green beans when with just a few minutes preparation, your beans can sing! A little garlic and herbs can go a long way.

Ingredients

  • 2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3/4 pounds fresh green beans, blanched
  • 1 teaspoon fresh oregano (or 1/2 teaspoons dried)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • salt and pepper to taste

Directions

  1. Sauté garlic in oil until just beginning to brown. Add the green beans, salt and pepper and cook until heated and crisp-tender (about 3-4 minutes). Add oregano, sprinkle with lemon juice, mix and serve.
