My Weekly Meal Plan
We picked up our first CSA box of the season yesterday morning and it was filled with kale, lettuce, green onions, sweet potatoes, yellow squash, arugula and strawberries! Most of our meals will be based off of this produce until we scarf it down. I’d love to know of any good recipes you have to share for these!
Sunday: CSA Share Picnic (yippie!)
Monday: Grilled squash and Green onion Salad with greek vinaigrette
*I just grilled some squash and green onions (long strips) that were marinated in my all-purpose greek marinade, then let it cool and tossed it with greens and the greek vinaigrette dressing. YUM!
Tuesday: Garlicky Kale and Cajun Sweet Potatoes
Wednesday: Kale & Bean Ragout
Thursday: Grilled Chicken and Quinoa Salad with Dried Fruit and Nuts
Friday: Pizza Night! Homemade Pizza Dough with Homemade Pizza Sauce
*Top with whatever is left in fridge, my new favorite is fresh chopped spinach, sliced tomatoes, green olives, peperocinis and artichokes.
Saturday: Caramelized Onion Gourmet Burger and Sweet Potato Fries
What is on your weekly meal plan this week? I’d love to hear your ideas!

Kelly, where do you find tahini paste? Thanks,
I’m sorry – I posted below. I found it at Kroger!
Our first CSA pick up was this week too and talk about asparagus!! Also, we got rhubarb and I had a ton of strawberries from last weeks $1/lb. sale at Meijer so I will be making strawberry rhubarb cobbler!
I found tahini paste at Krogers in the section of low foods (chips, rices, sauces, etc.) Hope this helps
Do you mind sharing which farm you get your CSA from in Nashville? I’ve been looking to sign up for one, just wasnt sure which one to get yet!
We joined DelvinFarms and we have really enjoyed it!
