Just got our basket for this week and it looks pretty good. Simple...but good. Here is what I will be working with for the week:
Bag of Mixed Lettuce
Bok Choy
Green Garlic
Mustard Greens
Sugar Snap Peas
Broccoli
4 tomatos
Carrots (I bought these in addition to our basket)
Two Cucumbers (left over from last week!)
Tonight I started working on dinner for tomorrow. GYROS! I mainly was looking for a way to use my cucumbers and a bit of salad mix. Tonight I made my version of Tzatziki, a yogurt based sauce for our gyros.
Tzatziki:
1 cucumber grated
1 cup greek style plain yogurt
Juice of 1 lemon
Fresh Mint (6 or 8) leaves (minced)
1 TBS greek oregano (minced)
Mix all ingredients together and let sit overnight. I also marinated my flank steak in a mixture of Garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, oregano, honey, salt and pepper and a little soy sauce. Tomorrow I will grill the steak and my pita bread, and maybe a bit of red onion and serve it all as a sandwich with some of my salad mix, tomato, and our tzatziki. Should be good! I'll let you know tomorrow.
Also looking ahead a bit, I think I will use some of my carrots, broccoli, snap peas, green garlic, and bok choy in a soup similar to vietnamese pho. Not exactly the same, but I would say "inspired" by pho. I'll let you know how that one goes too.
