Green Bean Casserole
Happy Hanukah! And happy holiday season to everyone. If you live in New England, you were probably snowed in all weekend. Did you spend any of that time cooking? I sure did. Five hours straight in the kitchen yesterday making a mini-Hanukah feast for Funk and me. I started off with a Vegan Green Bean [...]
Go-To Greens
I have this go-to recipe when I want to cook something simple with a big bunch of greens. I have used this combination with spinach, kale, collard greens and now Swiss chard. This recipe makes it easy to get in your servings of greens, which have health benefits up the wazoo. See what The World’s [...]
Steamy Broccoli Potato Soup
I think it was the first snow of the season that had me holed up in the kitchen for most of Sunday. What better way to spend a chilly day indoors than in the toasty warm kitchen making food for the week? Naturally in the mood for a big, steamy bowl of soup for lunch, [...]
Cruciferous Cheesy Cauliflower Bake
Have you had your cauliflower today? Probably not. It isn’t the favorite veggie of all time, with its bland white color and sulfur-smell when overcooked. But cauliflower, along with broccoli, brussel sprouts, cabbage, bok choy and kale belong to a family of vegetables known as cruciferous veggies, and all have big-time health benefits. I was [...]
Acorn Squash Veggie Burgers
We received a mammoth acorn squash in our Boston Organics box that waited patiently on our windowsill before I could figure out what to do with all that squash! I had filed away this recipe from Eating Well for Southwestern Pumpkin Burgers and thought substituting fresh acorn squash for canned pumpkin would be a very [...]
Pastabilities
Once in a blue moon I’ll be in the mood for pasta. Maybe I was carbo loading for Sunday’s hike when I dug out some whole wheat pasta out of the back of my cupboards – some spaghetti and ziti. I like my pasta with a light sauce and heavy on the vegetables. While cooking [...]
Heidi Swanson's Ten Minute Couscous Soup
I received this recipe for Ten Minute Couscous Soup at just the right time. Thinking ahead to dinner at night, I knew I needed something quick and easy, I wanted to use some of our fresh broccoli and celery from Boston Organics, and I wanted something to warm me up! This recipe fit all of [...]
Sweet Root Veggies
This week, we received some delicious looking root veggies in our Boston Organics box, including some yams and a rutabaga. I had never cooked (or maybe even eaten) a rutabaga before! Toni sent along a recipe I’d like and I adapted it a bit to make it a mealThe only time consuming part of the [...]
Easy Cheesy Broccoli Cheddar Soup
With a cold snap in the air and a few heads of fresh Boston Organics broccoli in the fridge, I was in the mood for a broccoli cheddar soup. I don’t like cream-based soups, so I was happy to find this fiber-filled, nutritious recipe from Eating Well that had a little more oomph than broth [...]
Tuna Melt Tomatoes
We received 5 Roma tomatoes in our Boston Organics box, and I’m guessing that was the last of the fresh summer tomatoes so I wanted to use them in something more creative than a salad topping. I invented some sort of tuna melt stuffed in the little tomato halves, and was pretty pleased with the [...]
