My CSA box this week.

• carrots - I think I'm going to use these along with the oranges we get in an Orange and Carrot soup recipe I found on-line that sounded intriguing. The rest I'll use in a batch of carrot cake/cupcakes. Hopefully, that should help me use up all the delicious (but bountiful) carrots we've received.
• turnips - Baby Turnip Slaw
• kale
• mixed lettuce - I'm going to use the lettuce in the chicken salad sandwiches I have planned for my work week lunch.
• radishes - Instead of using these in a salad, I'm going to try braising them and tossing them in with some green beans.
• broccoli florets - I'll probably use it in a beef stir fry.
• green garlic
• scallions
• grapefruit - The previous ones were juicy and sweet. Hope these are the same.
• oranges

It also contained cabbage.

I also got my first kohlrabi, which (according to Wikipedia) is suppose to have the same texture and taste as broccoli stem or cabbage heart.  I love broccoli and cabbage, so I hope this is true. I'm thinking of using these in a Kohlrabi Curry recipe I found on-line.

Picked up my first CSA box of the year. There were a ton of carrots - as you can see in the picture above. I've heard you can eat the carrot greens if you're not allergic to them. Not sure how I'm going to use the greens or if I will even like the taste of them. I guess as a last resort (so they don't go to waste) I can use them when I make stock.

I also got beets and radishes. I've never has beets, so I'm not sure if I'll like them. What do they taste like? Radishes are OK, but I'm not sure what I want to do with them other than slicing some up for a salad. I will try to find some time tomorrow to Google some recipes. Any suggestions?
