I was starting to get buried in my CSA share so I took all the roots and squash in the house and whipped up a fall soup using... carrots and onions sweated for the base, then threw in chopped up turnips, celeriac and potatoes. Let those cook a bit, poured over all the stock in the house (1/2 a box of chicken and a whole box of beef). Let that cook until all the roots were soft and threw in a half a roasted butternut and a steamed pumpkin with some cumin, thyme and a generous amount of chili flake, with salt and pepper to taste. It made lots of yummy hearty healthy soup to freeze, and subdued some of my CSA guilt.
I made arepas from the recipe in the NY Times yesterday. I baked instead of fried which still led to a very tasty result. Paired with some onions, mushrooms, eggplant and greens sauteed with chili, garlic, oregano and sage, as well as some home-made black beans and topped with fresh garden tomato and a little yogurt all made for an immensely satisfying dinner. Healthy and veggie based too!
