How I Used My Share

I used the Tatsoi, carrots, celery and scallions in a stir fry over soba noodles

I baked the sweet potatoes and served them with bacon and broccoli

I made a hash with the Evangeline sweet potato in a hash

The collards I braised with the mini peppers and served with grits

I ate the tomatoes, oranges and bananas out of hand

I made jam with the strawberries
