What's in your CSA box this week?
I got Pink Lady apples, strawberries, spring onions, watercress, bibb lettuce, and asparagus!
BF and I gobbled up the strawberries straight out of the carton! I'll bring the apples to work as a snack. I'm planning on making roasted asparagus and watercress goat cheese risotto tonight. Then making something like the PF Chang's lettuce wraps to use up the lettuce and spring onions.
What's in your box, and how are you planning on using it?

I believe it stands for Community Supported Agriculture. Basically, you pay a set amount to a farm or a group of farms, and in return, you get a share of the produce that they harvest each week. Some require you to put in some sweat equity (help pack boxes or whatever), too, but mine does not. So, you get fresh, in-season, often organic produce for good prices, but it's whatever they happen to harvest that week, rather than whatever you feel like buying at the grocery store, so it makes meal-planning a bit more of a challenge!
For my CSA, I get a veggie share (every week), a fruit share (every other week), eggs (18 every other week), and meat (2 lbs of beef, 1 lb of sausage, and 1/2 a chicken every other week)...the total price averages out to be ~$40/wk.
that is so cool! thanks for explaining.
