Sunburst squash is that crazy yellow flying saucer in your CSA box. You can use it the same way you use zucchini. But for a treat it is fun to stuff them. Here are two recipes for you play.
We love grilled zucchini, zucchini noodles, and zucchini fries. Here is a new twist that I want to try this week since it has cooled down and I am actually willing to use my oven, although I think I could probably do these on the grill as well.
Happy Cooking!

Two similar but slightly different recipes for green bean fries. They are fabulous! You can mix up the seasoning to your preferences. Happy Cooking!

The “original” veggie girl aka Abby made this cake a few weeks ago. (It warms my mama’s heart to envision her baking in her little apartment on Capital Hill. Abby just graduated this May from Cornish College of the Arts with a B.A. of Fine Arts in Dance.)
We are excited to try it! She recommended adding extra lemon juice to the frosting for a stronger lemon flavor.

These zucchini fries are the absolute bomb! Give them a try. You will not be sorry!

Here is a great tutorial on how to make a small batch of homemade sauerkraut. It is really pretty simple. I am hoping to give it a try this week as well. She gives a lot of information on the whole fermentation process. The article is definitely worth the time reading all the way to the end.

This week our regular share boxes have several pickling cucumbers in them. The plants are just starting to bear. Within the next couple of weeks we will start taking orders for bulk amounts. So keep checking the box post each week.
Pickling cucumbers are designed for making pickles but they are delicious for fresh eating as well. They are great sliced for a salad or sandwich. A little oil and vinegar and dill weed can transform this little gem into a delightful side dish. Or chop them up finely to make some Taziki sauce. I have included a few links below for you to give a whirl if you are looking for some ideas.
