Sadbear kitchen: Recent feasts
We've entered much wiser into our second year participating in a local farmshare with JMD Farm. Less going to waste, more overall cooking, still more new recipes to try out.
Tonight was a simple affair, but a great use of the otherwise question-causing collard greens. Katie found an easy recipe for collard green pesto linguine, which was just like regular pesto, but a tad more nutty and olive-y.
We get tons of greens early in the season, so finding this new use for collards was great.
But last night was the real feast, clocking in at about 2 hours of prep.
We had:
>> Roasted beets with goat cheese
>> Swiss chard boules stuffed with lemon barley 'risotto,' with a
>> roasted red pepper and pinenut coulis (sauce)
The beets recipe came out of one of our go-to cookbooks, Cooking from the Farmers' Market. The second was an amazing find because we got to try out our swiss chard and use our remaining barley.
Also deserving a quick mention is the awesome cake (with banners) that Katie made for Chase's going away party a few weeks back.
