This is such a great recipe to master for warm weather mezze platters! Gabriel and I just plated all the pots in our courtyard and celebrated over a bowl of these green jewels & our Mediterranean Save-A-Farm meatball flatbread meal kit.

Thinly slice the spring garlic stalk. Whisk olive oil, vinegar, honey, and spices together. Add the shallots and let sit for 5 minutes. Letting it sit will mellow out the raw sharpness of the garlic. If you don’t use it all, store in the fridge in a closed jar.
The cheesesteak isn’t Philly’s only famous sandwich. There is also an Italian roast pork sandwich which features broccoli rabe…you should give it a try the next time you’re in the city! I’ve taken my inspiration from that sandwich this week. This makes a great side dish or you can toss it with pasta, too…or put it between two slices of bread.
This is basically a kale pesto, surprise! By blanching (cooking quickly) the kale it will retain a bright green color.
I’ve been on a soup kick lately…especially cheddar soups! This recipe is quite delicious. Don’t forget your crusty bread!
Chimichurri is a great pantry staple to have in your repertoire! It has more oil than a pesto and is spiced with lots of garlic and red pepper. You can use it as a sauce over grilled veggies & meats, or can use it as a marinade.
I look forward to rhubarb every year! This recipe is just another way to enjoy it…and one of the easiest. You can really make a shrub with any fruit, but if you don’t feel like making your own shop for a bottle in our Marketplace!
You can pickle anything…even fruit! I usually throw apple slices into my spring salads for an added crunch, but I thought I’d put a twist on that this week by pickling them.
Portobello Mushrooms have a particularly meaty texture because they are one big piece, that it felt right to call these mignons this week. You can simply cook the mushrooms without the mash, but the sunchoke mash is delicious with the sauce from this recipe!
I’ve been making tahini dressing for my gem lettuce salads, and thought it would be delicious on sweet potatoes!
