They were more expensive than some of the available ones, but they also deliver from the beginning of May into December - and in August there are some boxes that weigh in at over 30 pounds each week. How about a nice frittata with your chard, when you get it? It's quick, easy to make, makes a great dinner, and it's a good way to use up lots of produce. I think you'd find the taste blends in and you won't dislike it. dainec: I am really happy with our choice of CSA.

I just bought a nice salmon filet that I was going to marinade with lots of lemon, garlic and greek seasonings then shred and add to greens for lunches next week, but I may need to reconsider! I took a look at your blog - nice! I've linked to it so I can read it often! Santos,

We don't have nearly that much yet. I wish I were as creative in the kitchen as you are ... and as willing to try new things. I still don't care for the chard.

They taste pretty much the same as the red currants. If I am ambitious enough tomorrow, I will make a currant sauce out of the currants, and serve that over a cream cheese pound cake. We'll see!

The only thing on your list that stumps me is white currents. Then again, I'm not I'd know what to do with red currents! If all else fails, remember soup saves all! Wow! I’m jealous.
