I made a scrumptious salad with the Kolrabi last night. I peeled it and sliced it thin and cut into half moons, finely chopped some strips of yellow pepper (the best peppers I have ever had), some roasted beets, yellow tomato and shredded green leaf lettuce. I made a vinaigrette of apple cider vinegar, EVOO, grated garlic, french mustard, cracked black pepper, salt and maple syrup and tossed everything in a bowl. Topped with goat cheese and roasted unsalted pistachios.
It was delicious…all thanks to Farmer Joan, which is what my 6 1/2 year old calls all veggies now…as in “can I have some Farmer Joan peppers in my lunch today Mama?”
I used the arugula and yellow squash to finish off a ragout of chicken thighs braised with white wine, tarragon, onion, garlic, carrot and celery over rigatoni. Yum.
How did you eat your veggies this week?
