We're changing things up this week and the featured recipe is not coming from Jolianne, but from a CSA member! We love hearing about and seeing the recipes that you are making with all of your Farm Fresh produce and this one was just too good not to share!
This recipe comes to us form Laura F. (@nowhereandgoodbye). She is a new CSA member and is loving the flexibility of the Ottawa Farm Fresh CSA, and the amount of organic produce in her basket every week!
Thanks for sharing, Laura, this recipe is a real celebration of Farm Fresh goodness!
