CSA Pickup #5 - Hats off to Amy

It's obsessive list time. Are you ready? This week's list is brought to you by the first potatoes of the season, and Amy too. I talked her into picking up for me while I was in Pennsylvania.

So here's my produce:
(The list is from Amy on my Facebook, edited a little as I unpacked)


1- one bunch of cilantro,
2- 1 onion,
3- 3 peppers (two looked like serranos maybe, and one like a green bell pepper, not sure though)
4- 1 summer squash
5- 1 eggplant
6- 1 pattypan squash
7- 8 red potatoes of various sizes
8- 3 small tomatoes and 7 cherry tomatoes
9- 1 dozen eggs
10- more snapdragons
11- 2 massive zucchini
12- Mystery Greens - possibly spicy mustard greens
13- 1 cucumber

So, my first reaction was that I have the ingredients for ratatouille. Add some garlic and olive oil, and it should be delicious. I'm excited about the tomatoes too. They aren't big enough for slicing yet, but they could make a good pico de gallo.

Minus one ginormous zucchini, which I think will go towards chocolate zucchini bread (mmm...). Happy to help :)

Even though I'm not a big veggie person, all these pickup posts make me hungry. I never saw you cook when we were in high school so I'm impressed by the variety you seem to have. If you ever get down here I'll have to have you cook dinner for my family one night.

I am sad I won't be around for the ratatouille let me know how it turns out. I wanted to let you know I posted a picture of a corn field and added a description with you in mind.
