I think my favorite item from our first CSA bag this week were the kiwifruit. I don’t think I even realized there were kiwifruit growers in California. I’m grateful there are! Nate was dismayed to discover today that 5 of the 6 kiwifruit were “missing.” I just couldn’t help myself. I blame it on the fact they’re so healthy. I felt like I should be eating them uncontrollably. You know, for my health. Oh, I’m supposed to be worried about my family’s healthy too? Whoops.
I can’t believe it’s March already! For those of you still experiencing crazy winter weather, I’ll cross my fingers that, even though March may be coming in like a lion, it will in fact go out like a lamb for you!

how do you do the copy cat chick fil a nuggets? I’m intrigued!
I just googled copy cat chick-fil-a nuggets. The recipes say to fry them, but I’m going to bake instead. I’m sure that will affect them somewhat. However I don’t like to fry and I have another nugget recipe that I bake and it comes out fine.
I haven’t planned my menu yet but just wanted to say how excited I was when I saw your picture in my little Kroger magazine!!! A whole article with recipes by my favorite blogger, Jane Maynard!!!! Look at you gettin’ all famous! Congrats!
I haven’t seen it yet – that’s so fun you noticed! 🙂 I”m excited about it, I saw a PDF of the spread and they did a nice job…I need to get my hands on it! 🙂 thanks for commenting!
I’m glad you’re enjoying your CSA goodies. I don’t choose what I get in my co-op basket, so turnips showed up this week. Hmm. Any good ideas?
Saturday: Turkey Burgers + Chips + Fruit Salad + Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie & Ice Cream for dessert
Sunday: Stir Fry (with Choo’s Marinaded Chicken) + Brown Rice + Fresh Pineapple (yum!)
Monday: Applesauce Pancakes w/ Cinnamon Syrup + Eggs
Tuesday: Whole Wheat Pizza + Green Salad
Wednesday: Burritos (w/ Ground Turkey) + Fruit
Thursday: Sandwiches {w/ shredded Italian Beef and BBQ Chicken from freezer} on Rolls + Cheesy Turnips & Carrots
See my menu w/ recipe links here.
I have no ideas for turnips! I’m useless. 😉
OK….you can cook turnips just the way you cook potatoes for mashed potatoes; add some peeled apple to the water as you’re cooking them (you want about 1/3 apple, 2/3 turnips) and when everything is tender, drain it off and mash with milk, butter, salt, and pepper. Really good. You can also use turnips with sweet potatoes, in a mash or a gratin.
mmmm, that sounds yummy!
I just made a recipe where they acted like potatoes as well. This time alongside carrots and a roast. I hadn’t had them before and enjoyed the change.
goin with the numbers again this week –
1. cream of mushroom soup (because it’s STILL cold here)
2. vegetable tamale pies
3. butternut squash salad with warm cider vinaigrette
4. mushroom quesadillas
5. spaghetti carbonara

My husband and I have been considering joining a CSA this year. I am glad to hear that you have been enjoying yours! We love kiwi too. I just made a super easy, totally awesome fruit salad: dice a couple of peeled kiwi and divide among bowls, peel a couple of oranges and divide sections among your bowls, then puree a cup of frozen (or fresh) strawberries with a little orange zest and put a couple tablespoons over each fruit cup. So yummy and refreshing. I had some leftover strawberry sauce that I used to top my ‘No Pudge’ brownies later in the week. Anyways…here’s week three of the 500 calorie dinner challege:
Sunday: Leftovers
Monday: Veggie Frittata, turkey sausage
Tues: Veggie burgers, salad
Wednesday: Chili Cook Off for Relay for Life

Looking forward to seeing what you make with your CSA goodies. I have been thinking of signing up this year.

I was surprised that you had Kiwi in your bag as I was under impression that all Kiwi came from New Zealand. Did a quick google search and found that my impression was indeed incorrect.
Hooray for Kiwi!!!
that’s what I thought, too! I went to a lunch sponsored by a new zealand company, and I’m pretty sure that’s what they led us to believe…maybe it’s a new thing that they’re growing them in california. very interesting…regardless, they were delish and I’m glad I could get them local – so fun!

I’ve been terrible about menu planning lately. Terrible. Work and life have just been too busy. But I FINALLY sat down this past weekend and planned out a menu, and actually executed the plan by making it to the grocery store and doing all my shopping. Whew. That felt good! Here’s what we’ve been eating / will be eating:
Sunday: Caramelized Onion & Roasted Cauliflower Soup. Wow. This was ridiculously delicious. So delicious that I ate way too much of it. I’ll definitely be posting about this one soon.
Monday: Sesame Noodles with Tofu, Cucumber & Arame (http://missiondelectable.wordpress.com/2011/02/23/sesame-noodles-with-tofu-cucumber-arame/). This one has quickly become an absolute favorite at our house.
Tuesday: Eggplant Gratin
Wednesday: Brussels Sprout Pizza. This one’s a new experiment for me. Ate a pizza like this a few years back and loved it – we’ll see how it turns out!
Thursday: Pasta Shells with Fingerling Potatoes, Fresh Herbs & Arugula (http://missiondelectable.wordpress.com/2011/02/17/pasta-shells-with-fingerling-potatoes-fresh-herbs-arugula/)
Friday: Dine out on the town.
Hi Jane,
Wouldn’t it be fun to run a few statistics on the most common meal everybody eats each week, posted from your site? I’ve been reading through the meal plans and some are very similar, so I’m curious on the “most common” dish your readers eat each week. Just “Food” for thought. (Pun intended.)
Sunday: Sliders, Roasted Vegetable Orzo (Barefoot Contessa) and Fruit
Monday: Taco Night
Tuesday: Chili, sour dough bread and salad
Wednesday: Spaghetti (Dad’s night to cook)
Thursday: “Lori’s favorite chicken” Breaded dijon chicken cutlets and rice
Friday – Out -most likely pizza

Thank you for sharing the Asian Salad recipe! It’s delicious! I don’t have time for dinners, but I do plan my lunch menu for the week to save $. This really mixed it up, and I already had most of the ingredients at home!
so glad you liked it – I do love that recipe!!
As usual, thank you all for sharing your wonderful menu plans!!!
