CSA Week 1

We decided to do a CSA this year.  The farmers market was too expensive and I wanted to challenge myself in the kitchen. We are doing a 1/2 share which is basically a full share, every other week. All this produce is organic.  Including gas costs, this costs us around $25 each time we pick up or $50 a month for a good portion of our produce.  I'll obviously need to supplement our produce but I think I can keep it under $75 a month for all my produce. 

What we got:

1 pint of Strawberries
Radishes
Turnips
Spinach
Salad Mix
Garlic Scapes
Broccoli
Kale
2 different types of lettuce

We picked up on Tuesday and have enjoyed the Kale, Garlic Scapes, Salad Mix, Radishes and Strawberries so far. 


Here is a picture of a meal I made this week (I went off my meal plan).....

Chicken with caramelized onions, Kale Chips, Roasted Radish/Carrot mix

I'll be sharing my chicken recipe next week.

Do you do a CSA? How much do you spend on produce?
