I love getting carrots in my blossom bag. Carrots are so great at being a part of a larger dish or as the main event! This week we made our favorite roasted carrots with lime yogurt, cotija and cilantro!

These carrots can also be made on the grill if you are not turning on your oven to avoid making the house any hotter than it already is.

🥕🥕🥕

To make:
Halve thick carrots lengthwise and drizzle with olive oil.
Make spice mix- cumin, chili powder, garlic, oregano and a little bit of brown sugar. Toss with carrots and roast.
While roasting mix yogurt, lime zest, lime juice and minced garlic.
Slice jalapeño, chop cilantro and crumble cotija for the top.

Scapes from

How we did it:
Trim bottom of scapes a little. Message olive oil on scapes in a bowl with salt and pepper.
Place on hot grill.
Let cook until bright green and tender.

We also made a green salad using:
Head lettuce from
The last of our frisée from
Purple diakon from
We added a little red onion and dressed it with olive oil, lemon, vinegar, garlic and honey. It was delicious.

Produce spotlight!! These delicious garlic scapes are only available for a few weeks out of the year. Enjoy them grilled, sautéed, as a pesto, or in a dressing. Do you have a favorite recipe that calls for 1-2” pieces of sautéed asparagus(mine’s a pasta dish with prosciutto and lemon zest)? Try replacing it with the scapes!

This weeks blossom bag! Salads all week but I can’t wait to grill these garlic scapes this weekend. We only get garlic scapes for a small window each spring so enjoy them!!!!

This week I(Hannah) got to make my favorite bok choy salad with the bok choy and scallions. This simple salad of the perfect mix of crispy and crunchy.

There are three simple parts:
Chop bok choy and scallions and wash in salad spinner. Once spun place in the fridge. The chilled bok choy has the perfect crunch!

In a saucepan combine neutral oil, rice vinegar, sugar and soy sauce. Heat until combined. This still separates I put it in a jar so that I can shake before dressing.

In a cast iron with a little oil crisp up the noodles from a ramen packet(no seasoning, just the noodles) brake before adding to the pan. Add sliced almonds and sesame seeds. Once toasted set aside.

Combine the three parts and enjoy! If you store everything separately this salad is great packed for lunch the next day!

I most often eat hakurei turnips raw but this week I thought It would be fun to try these simple sautéed turnips. I love a recipe with so few ingredients- turnips, olive oil, salt and pepper.

- Trim greens and peel turnips(not necessary but I thought it might help achieve a nice brown) leaving a little bit of green tips. Cut in quarters.
- Wash greens and blanch for 1-2min until just tender. Set in a cool water bath and spin to remove water. Chop and set aside.
- Heat olive oil in cast iron until HOT and add turnips let sides brown lightly and cook until tender, 5-6min. Salt and pepper to taste.
- Combine turnips and greens in a bowl and add a little more olive oil.
-Enjoy!!!

The bright pink of these radishes!!! How are you eating your radishes this week? A quick pickle, in a salad on toast or roasted?!

Worried about keeping it alive on your window sill?

My favorite way is to place it on a plate or in a bowl and watering from the bottom. Every day or every other day just check that there is a little water in the dish.
