Ingredient Spotlight: CSA Box #12


This week's box from Lancaster Farm Fresh Cooperative included:

1 Bag Red Beets - Farmdale Organics
1 Bag Mixed Tomatoes - Green Valley Organics
1 Bag Yukon Gold Potatoes - Hillside Organics
2 Lemon Cucumbers - Liberty Acres
2 Green Bell Peppers - Meadow Valley Organics
1 Pint Sungold Cherry Tomatoes - Scarecrow Hill Organics
1 Bunch Red Cippolini Onions - Liberty Branch Farm

The new-to-me vegetable this week is the lemon cucumber. I don't think I've even ever seen one before now! Apparently they taste the same as "normal" cucumbers do, they just have a lemony-color and shape. Given that last week's CSA box had tomatoes, we've been harvesting several from our container garden, and we've received several more this week, I think there's a good chance I'll be whipping up some salsa this week! Recipes I've got my eye on to try this week include:

  1. I keep wavering on joining a CSA, but you are definitely pushing me toward a YES.
