Cauliflower Mash…It Really Works!

I made the mash and it works! I am SO surprised! Here is how I tweaked the recipe: 1 large head of cauliflower, steamed and placed into the food processor. Be sure to drain off any water from the steaming process. Add salt and pepper to taste, 1 tablespoon of…

Sequal to “Southern Men Proof” Mash

On the suggestion of Susan in the comments section of The Boxes are Here, I am trying this with our dinner tonight! My husband really likes mashed potatoes and doesn’t really enjoy cauliflower. Let’s see how he he likes this! I have high hopes and can’t wait!

Cherry Tomato and Cheddar Cheese Risotto

Farm Box Soup

In our home, where you have a meal with roast chicken one day, you will also have soup with homemade chicken stock another day.  I like to purchase organic chickens and they are definitely more expensive than their non-organic counterparts.  Sadly, you won’t see a “99 cents a pound sale”…

What is Kohlrabi?

Up until a few months ago I had never heard of Kohlrabi. Then…it arrived in my farm box.   Although it looked a little strange because of the somewhat bumpy exterior, it resembled a turnip or a rutabaga. These I am familiar with, but have only used them in soups….

Zucchini Bread – Kicked up a Nutritional Notch

I did some research this morning and came up with this recipe which is a compilation of about 5 of the different recipes I found. I combined the idea of filling the loaves with produce, with using whole wheat flour and then adding a little sweetness with the chocolate chips….
