God makes good food, so I like just getting out of the way. With the peas, added to the last few minutes of a nice aglio y olio pasta dish is nice. (Or as we've come to say in our house, "some pasta") Four year CSA vet here :-) My growing conviction is that with produce this good the less you do to it, the better.

Too good. When my parents did CSA I remember them getting a whole lotta kale...enough to make me doubt that I, with my wee family of two, could benefit. But I do love me the Bing cherries. Hmmm...time to reconsider? I love peas in tuna noodle casserole...my all-time favorite food until I got old enough to realize, dude, why is this my favorite food? Anyway, I think the peas are the only healthy thing IN tuna noodle casserole, so maybe that's not a great suggestion. Oh! I have heard that fresh peas are complemented by mint, though I've never tried it. Peas AND garlic? Too good.

I got Bing cherries last week, and they were unbelievably delicious. This week, kiwi and Yukon gold potatoes are the best. I haven't gotten peas yet, but I have found that fresh local organics taste at least 100 times better than traditional produce. Not only is the produce local, the delivery service is based in a town about 10 minutes from my home. If there are other readers from Michigan, check out http://Michigan.doortodoororganics.com. They are reasonably priced and offer all sorts of customizable boxes. I also get organic produce delivered weekly, and I love it! I got Bing cherries last week, and they were unbelievably delicious.
