Here’s what we got in today’s Bountiful Basket for $15:
4 peaches
5 plums
6 bananas
1 cantaloupe
1 bunch green grapes
1 bag green beans
3 tomatoes (Bob and I got 2 extra tomatoes for going and volunteering this morning)
1 eggplant
1 head green cabbage
2 bunches green leaf lettuce (also got an extra head of lettuce for volunteering)
5 pounds potatoes
We also added on the Mexican pack (for an additional $7) which looked like this:
and contained:
2 onions
1 bunch garlic
6 limes
2 avacadoes
1 bunch cilantro
1 bunch green onions
10 tomatillos
7 jalapenos
3 Anaheim peppers
3 Pasilla peppers
2 Mexican squash (look like zucchinis)
I’ve already made Chinese Chicken Salad with the cabbage and green onions and Bob just printed off a recipe for “Tomatillo Salasa Verde” which will use the tomatillos, onion, garlic, cilantro and peppers (the recipe calls for serrano but we’ll sub in 1 of the other kinds that we got).
