So, the little one and I are out of town, which means that my culinary prowess is also out of town, leaving the big one and daddy to their own devices. So this is my attempt at not coming home to a bunch of spoiler veggies.
In the box
Beets - I know you don't like beets and they'll last a while in the fridge
Broccoli - Steam in the steamer for 10 minutes. You put water in the bottom part ( for broccoli, its the lower marker) then the flat plastic part, then the basket with the lid. I suggest putting the broccoli over baked potatoes or eating it with baked chicken (throw some veggie seasoning and salt & pepper on the chicken, pop it in the oven for 30-40 minutes at 375 (I use the other food auto convection setting).
Carrots - peel em, steam em (see broccoli, but they take about a half hour or whatever it says on the front of the steamer) or eat em raw.
Celery - wash it, cut it, see if RJ will eat it in his lunch
Dry-farmed Tomatoes - dice and saute to make a quick sauce for pasta.
Heirloom Tomatoes - RJ likes them sliced and salted.
Kale - pull off from stem, rinse, spin, tear in pieces, saute and add to scrambled eggs or tomatoes and pasta
Potatoes - microwave has a baked potatoes button. doesn't get easier than that. see broccoli to pair.
Radishes - find Ashley and offload.
Sweet Peppers - thaw and cook ground turkey. add Chili powder, cumin, coriander, onion powder ( or chopped onions), garlic powder ( or garlic), and salt. cut peppers in half. bake for a few minutes to soften. add turkey, mixing it with corn and chopped peppers. top with cheese ( for you...RJ will flip if there is cheese on his. serve with salsa, sour cream, etc.
Note: If this is formatted weird, blame my kindle.
