Winter share, 1 of 11

[magid]

• three pounds of carrots
  
• three pounds of potatoes
  
• three pounds of beets
  
• two heads of cabbage (I chose medium ones, one green, one Savoy; there were large ones bigger than my head)
  
• ten heads of garlic
  
• a bag of spinach
  
• a bag of Swiss chard
  
• a bag of kale
  
• take-what-you-want herbs (I chose none)

First thoughts: I'm still awash with last week's veggies (see: Jewish Holiday Time), and due to the farm wanting to make the schedule 'nice' for Thanksgiving/Xmas, the second winter share pickup is not in two weeks, but next week, so I have to start major cooking!

Potatoes mashed with kale. Colcannon. Cole slaw. Kale salad with cubes of roasted sweet potato, chickpeas, sunflower seeds, and tahini dressing. Carrot pickles. Beet pickles. Greens sauted with garlic, and maybe turned into a quiche or vegetable pie. Roasted garlic. Roasted cabbage.

Indeed! And I still have most of last week's haul, too. At least they're all pretty standard veggies (though I'd love onions, lots of onions; I can always use more of them!).
