And because butternut and sage are such great friends, there’s also a recipe for Sage Butternut Squash Sauce from the Southern Food and Beverage Museum in New Orleans. It’s from Liz Williams, founder of the museum and she says, “Sometimes you want pasta and not tomato sauce. This is especially in true in winter … when there is an abundance of butternut squash. Of course, the quick solution is to make pasta with garlic, olive oil and cheese. There’s nothing wrong with that. But when you want a richer sauce, butternut squash is perfect.” (There’s already a recipe for Butternut Squash Steaks with Brown Butter-Sage Sauce in the recipe listings.)
Recipes
(2022) Cabbage and Farro Soup
For a couple of new recipes (assuming we get any cold weather!) how about the Cabbage and Farro Soup below (wish I remembered the provenance of that recipe). It’s only going to use part of that enormous cabbage but I like that it uses the core as well as the leaves.
(2022) Cauliflower, Pumpkin Seeds, Breadcrumbs
And finally, a cauliflower! This is a recipe I’ve been wanting to try, from “Greenfeast: Spring, Summer” by Nigel Slater.
(2022) Eve’s Pot Liquor
Last week we had turnip greens (without the turnips) and I juiced them. I juiced apples. And I made Eve’s Pot Liquor, a cocktail from Keyatta Mincey-Parker that I found in an old issue of Atlanta magazine. Recipe is down below. Have you tried aloe liqueur? I had to buy it for a recipe for the AJC. Lightly sweet, yummy, glad to find another use for it. And loved putting turnip greens into a cocktail.

Sweet potatoes in the box remind me we have lots and lots of sweet potato recipes at grassfedcow.com but I’m adding one more. Down below you’ll find Alexandra Stoddard’s recipe for Sweet Potato and Black Bean Burritos. Delicious filling and a way to use some of that beautiful lettuce as well.
(2022) Crustless Quiche Loaded with Kale
And yes, we have lots and lots of greens recipes, too, but here’s one more, Stoddard’s Crustless Quiche Loaded with Kale. I love anything that looks like a pie but doesn’t make me prepare a crust!
