This week's basket included honeydew melon, red pears, lemons, apricots, blackberries, bananas, corn, onions, tomatoes, a cucumber, carrots, green peppers, and cauliflower. Nothing too exotic, so it should be pretty easy to use up! Here are my plans:
Honeydew: cut up and keep in the fridge to snack on
Pears: salt and eat
Lemons: lemon coconut cookies, freeze juice for later use
Apricots: smoothies, eat as is
Blackberries: smoothies, blackberries & cream
Bananas: tropical banana bread, banana cream pie, smoothies
Corn: steam and eat
Onions: It's a good thing onions last for a while because we don't really eat onions and there are tons of them. I can only make so much salsa. Maybe I'll branch out and try onion rings.
Tomatoes: bacon tomato sandwiches, salsa
Cucumber: Fritos salad, slice and dip in hummus
Carrots: meatloaf, cut into sticks and eat with hummus
Green peppers: stuffed peppers, Fritos salad
Cauliflower: I would normally roast it, but this week I want to try a new recipe for cheesy cauliflower pancakes!
I am glad you post this bc I needed some ideas! Also, you can chop the onions and freeze them for later. That is probably what I am going to do.
ReplyDeleteGood call Courtney! I do that with celery, don't know why I didn't think to do it with onions! I do believe I'll be adding some diced onions to my freezer!
