Refreshing Summer Drink

Ok so if you are like us you have a million cucumbers sitting around. I tried this recipe for a cucumber lime summer drink and it was a BIG hit! I only needed 2 1/2 limes to get to half cup. I would cut sugar in half next time too. Try it out.

Frittata

A wise friend told me that she makes a frittata every week with whatever leftover veggies she has in the house. I have now started doing this as well and it pleases everyone in the house. Tonight I used peppers and green onions from the farm. I even saw a recipe for zucchini frittata but I haven't tried that yet. Here is a basic recipe that I use and then add to it. Good use of the abundance of veggies we all have hanging around. Now if only I could make a beet frittata....

Good Website

Our CSA sent us a link to this website and I used a recipe for Swiss Chard last night. Looks like it has a lot of good ideas. Let me know if you use any and how you like them!

Summer Squash

This recipe for summer squash was excellent. We made it with grilled swordfish and everyone loved it. Very quick.

Summa Squash and Zucchini Side

so, thanks for letting me join the community. I am a member of the Weir River share, please don't think any less of me....

We got a bunch of good stuff this week including some really nice summer squash and zucchini. I am not a huge texture fan of these so I decided to change it up a little.

I cut them into rounds and dipped them into a mixture of breadcrumb, parmesan and red pepper fakes. I had also picked some fresh Sage and I made some Sage butter to pour over it once they were covered with above mixture. I put them on a pam-sprayed cookie sheet at 425 for 20 minutes. I actually flipped in the middle because the butter started to brown a little early. It was quick and easy way to get some texture into a veg that i usually don't love. I served it with a Masala dipping sauce from Trader Joes, I loved it and wife didn't. I figured an alternative dip next time would be tomatoes and sundried tomatoe and light cream or OJ.

I found a version of this on the Wole Food Mobile App.

Snap Peas & Veggie Sandwich

Anyone have suggestions for what to do with snap peas? I have no clue. Thanks!

K's Veggie Sandwich - my husband's simple veggie sandwich

• bread - we use either ciabatta or baguette, although you could do it with lavash, pita or tortilla wrap
• cucumber - peeled, seeded and cut into small chunks
• tomato - we prefer Roma - seeded and cut into small chunks
• scallions/green onions - chopped up small
• hummus
• olive oil
• salt & pepper

Mix equal portions of cucumber & tomato in a bowl, drizzle with olive oil and add scallions, salt & pepper to taste. Dress bread with hummus and fill with cucumber/tomato/scallion mixture. You can also add bacon, ham or prosciutto, but it is quite nice as a meatless sandwich.

Enjoy!
