Week 14

Welp, Linsey is in New Mexico for the month, so I'm trying to fill in. My knowledge of produce isn't great, and I generally stick to recipes with two or fewer ingredients (example: water and noodles).

Still, I thought I could make up for all this with some really stunning photos. Turns out Linsey took our camera with her to NM.

Oh well...

Here's a photo snapped by my laptop and a few simple recipes I've been trying.



WEEK 12:
  • Cucumbers
  • Garlic
  • Poblano peppers
  • Tomatoes
  • Zephyr squash
  • Some other type of summer squash
  • Green beans
  • Some thing that might be garlic scapes
RECIPES:
Chicken and summer squash
- tomatoes, squash
Grilled Chicken and Veggies Over Rice
- squash, peppers

I've also been cutting up the squash, tomatoes, and peppers and wrapping them in some foil with olive oil, salt and pepper. I throw this on the grill for 20 minutes or so. It's quick, easy and delicious!

I'm Leaving! (for just 4 weeks)

I'm going to be doing an Indian Health Service rotation in New Mexico for the next four weeks so I'll be missing out on the next four weeks of food. I'm very excited to go but am also sad to miss my husband, puppy and weekly fresh vegetables - in fact, I'll be in a town with only one small grocery store in the middle of the desert. Hopefully my husband will at least take pictures and post them here for me to admire what he is getting to enjoy back at home, and then I'll be back in September for the rest of the season!
