Howdy, Misfit Members! Happy Thursday! Here's what's ripe for the pickin' this week:
-Green Tomatoes
-Kale: Curly, Toscano
-Cabbage
-Red Onions
-Broccoli
-Snap Peas
-Salas Mix
-Squash: Patty Pan, Yellow Crookneck, Zucchini, Zucchino
-Cucumbers
It's definitely a squash week! I might have ignored my zucchini plants a few days over the weekend, and mayyy have had an entire gator-bed full of baseball-bat size zukes. Whoops!! Oh well, at least the chickens enjoyed them!
Baked Zucchini Bites
Ingredients:
-1 Cup zucchini, shredded and drained
-1 Clove garlic, minced
-1/3 Cup breadcrumbs
-1/4 Cup Parm
-1 Egg
-3-4 Tbsp Italian seasoning
-Salt & pepper to taste
-Marinara for dipping
Directions:
-Preheat oven to 400. Spray a baking sheet with non-stick spray and set aside.
-Use the largest side of a box grater to grate zucchini. Roll up in a towel to wring out moisture.
-Add all ingredients (except marinara) to a bowl and mix well to combine.
-Scoop out about a tablespoon of the mixture and pat into a ball. Place the balls on the baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden. Serve with marinara.
The first and second planting of the sweet corn are really growing! The third planting has sprouted, and is just a couple inches tall.
Up the hill in the plastic rows, it seems something is making a snack of our popcorn. I tied some noise-making ribbon on every other stalk, so hopefully that puts an end to it!
And y'all, I am up to my ears in green tomatoes. I am very impatiently waiting on the darn things to turn red- surely to goodness we will have some by next week!
I believe that's all for this week! Have a great week and don't forget to wash your produce!
