(2017) Grilled Fish and Summer Squash Packets
Those sweet little yellow squash are just calling out for something simple like this grilled fish. It’s a recipe from America’s Test Kitchen.
(2017) Ratatouille Quiche
Finally, a pretty complicated recipe from Frank Stitt of Birmingham’s Highlands Bar and Grill, Bottega Cafe and Chez Fonfon. Delicious and worth the time it takes to make it. Maybe this could be a project for this weekend? Do you have some zucchini left from last week? Perfect. If not, maybe substitute another eggplant for the squash called for her.
(2017) Summer Succotash
I wish I remembered where this came from. But it’s a great way to use the corn and peppers from today’s box. We don’t have field peas yet, but I’m betting we’ll see some soon. And this is delicious without field peas – so consider maybe dicing up a zucchini if you have one left from last week. It’s an easy recipe for a slow cooker.
(2017) Summer Squash Risotto
Yes, you could make squash casserole, or grill your squash, or just stir fry it. But maybe you’d like to try this risotto idea from thekitchn.com. Risotto is such a thing these days that you’ll find Arborio rice on the shelves at every grocery store. I remember when it was a specialty item and you had to search!
(2017) Zucchini Chips
You probably have a similar recipe in your arsenal, but just in case …
(2017) Grilled Cabbage, Squash and Couscous Salad
This is a recipe I adapted from one I saw in Better Homes and Gardens. If you’re not serving it with a grilled meal, then grill the vegs when it’s convenient and refrigerate, then assemble when you’re ready for this salad.
(2017) Tomato and Squash Gratin
This simple recipe can be enhanced by slicing up some of those green onions and sprinkling them between the layers.
Ratatouille Stuffed Eggplant
This lovely recipe comes to us from Garnish & Gather, the Atlanta-based local organic dinner delivery service. It will use up three of the vegetables in your box. No farro on hand? Substitute whatever grain – bulgur, rice, quinoa – you have in your pantry.
