Raise your hand if you’re excited about the watermelons from Raleigh’s Hillside Farm this week! Yup, us too. It seems like the perfect summery treat and we’re here for it. Add in some summer sweet corn chowder and alllll of the roasted vegetables in the feta bake, and the chard and tomatoes in the curry and we’re just living our best (summer) lives. Eat up, friends! We sure will.
We’re packing summer produce into every bite this week, friends. Peppers, kohlrabi, radish, fennel, sweet corn, greens, herbs, tomatoes… the list goes on and on. Dig in and enjoy your family friendly faves — BBQ sammies, stuffed peppers, and risotto — chock-full of all this farm-fresh goodness. Such a great time to live in Wisconsin!
One of our biggest hits from last Summer, the Elote Kit, is back. The sweetest corn with a creamy, slightly spicy, aoili and cheese topping paired with a farm-fresh chopped salad = a match made in foodie heaven. Add in grilled cheese with tomato soup (from the reddest, ripest tomatoes) and a roasted vegetable, pesto lasagna? Dinners for the week are looking good, friends.
We’re back at it with more local goodness! Not only are we sourcing all of our vegetables (helloooo kale, cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, beans, purple carrots mushrooms and more) from local farms, but the baguette for your Banh Mi is from Clasen’s European Bakery and the flour for your tart dough (and shortbread) is from Meadowlark Organics! Local any way you look at it.
Good news for the grilling fans out there: not only is your Cook Kit grill-friendly, but so is your Extra Goodness! Get ready for Vanilla Cake with Strawberry Compote, made even tastier if you give the cake a quick hit of heat on the hot grates first, too. Don’t worry, it’ll be just as delicious if you follow the indoor cooking instructions instead. Enjoy your week, friends!
We’re featuring another recipe from Farmer Lauren at Raleigh’s Hillside Farm this week! Enjoy both her grandmother’s recipe for Zucchini Pie — it’s been a favorite in her family for decades — and the fresh vegetables (think: allll of the zucchini, scallions, and herbs galore) from Lauren’s farm that went into making it. It doesn’t get much more local than that, eh, friends?
Who is ready for some light and fresh summer flavors?! Three favorites — grilled chicken sandwiches, a basmati rice bowl, and beef and broccoli — filled with all of the local veg and flavors of summer. Don’t worry, we’re here to help make dinner a cinch on those nights when you’re out a little too late enjoying some summer fun.
So much summer goodness on the menu this week! Brats, because nothing says summer in Wisconsin more (zucchini melts for you Veggie friends, because same!). And so much local veg this week from Winterfell Acres and Raleigh’s Hillside Farm. Enjoy the sunshine between the raindrops, those brats would be perfect for dining al fresco. Enjoy!
Get excited for a great menu! A soba noodle salad recipe from Farmer Lauren at Raleigh’s Hillside Farm that features all of her farm-fresh produce. A new twist on one of your favorites: sloppy joe sandwiches. And more of those delicious galettes from our P&P Makeshop partners at Tart Baked Goods. Plus, there are cupcakes to celebrate our Birthday Month! Yay!
And a happy day it is because pizza is back on the menu! Featuring the season’s first zucchini paired with confit garlic scape ricotta, this pie is sure to be a new fave. We’re also excited for you to try the pickled grapes; they’re the perfect foil for the richness and creaminess of the celery soup. To top it off, who doesn’t love a spicy Jambalaya on a hot day, right friends? Enjoy!
