You guys! It’s heirloom tomato season! My favorite of all the seasons. I dare you to make these gorgeous gems last more than two days in your kitchen before you devour them. I like them best sliced thick in a tomato sandwich with avocado.
We’ve also got another bunch of radishes this week. Are you experiencing Radish Fatigue? Don’t worry…we can help!

It was a wet day at VegHub HQ today, and we’ve got baskets chock full of tasty greens for you this week!
Tracy told me when I came by that there were so many greens that they had trouble fitting them all into your baskets today! That is a lot of green and leafies!
We’ve also got another bunch of green garlic this week. I chopped up mine last week and fried it up in some olive oil to toss with pasta. Recommended! We also have another awesome batch of strawberries. Raise your hand if you ate the entire pint in one sitting!
Need some help cooking up this week’s basket? I’ve got you covered with a few ideas! Read the rest of this entry »

Wowie, was it a busy day at VegHub HQ today! I got to relive my veggie sorting days and help Brian and Tracy load up the baskets, and at 2:30, Steve Miller rolled in with sweet potatoes and spinach just as the first drivers arrived. Everyone pitched in, and those spring baskets busting with green are on their way to you.
What a day! You guys are going to love your baskets this week. They just scream SPRING! I’m planning some big salads and lots of green smoothies with these veggies. What’s cooking where you are? Read the rest of this entry »

Margie is down in New Orleans this week on a much-needed vacation, but never fear! Laura Louise and Mary are on the case, getting those lovely veggies and making sure they make it to your front door. This week we’re getting a nice mix of root veggies and greens, and our herb is thyme.
I don’t know about you guys, but I always have trouble figuring out what to do with those beets. Sure, you can juice them, but if juicing’s not your thing you probably struggle with those bright red veggies each week. Sunchokes are another one that stump me after I’ve gotten them for a few weeks in a row. Never fear! I’ve tracked down some recipes to help out with the beets and sunchokes in your basket that also use some of the other veggies we’re getting this week.
