Eat Outside the Box

Eat outside the box is my new favorite thing. Each Tuesday for the next few months I am receiving food from the Knoll Family farms.

How it works: Once a week we get a variety of organic products grown from the garden. We get to pack up and weight our portions when we pick them up. I have always wanted to work at a grocery store.

This week we received a large variety of rabe greens, Italian rapini greens, fava bean greens, tangelos, green garlic and baby carrots. Everything looks so nutritious. Can it look nutritious? I have never cooked with rapini and am very excited.

For dinner tonight I cooked the fava pea greens, which cook like swiss chard [my favorite], green garlic and sausages over creamy polenta. It was really good. I am planning on making a garlic pasta with the rapini.
