Here is our delicious Harvest Box for this week:
Green Beans! Green beans are a delightful side dish to serve around the holidays, and are easy to incorporate into your Christmas dinner. These green bean recipes are fast and easy to cook, delicious, and good for you. Check out these Green Beans with Lemon and Garlic or tasty Green Beans with Shallots . You can also serve up Green Beans with Onion, or for a little extra *zing* try these Green Beans in Spicy Peanut Sauce. Pan-Fried Tofu with Garlic Green Beans is a good choice for vegetarians, and these Spicy Green Beans with Lime and Cilantro are a lovely accompaniment to an ethnic meal.
Garlic is another Harvest Box item that is wonderful to add to almost any dish over the holidays. Despite what some may say, freshly chopped or diced garlic is far better than the jarred or powder varieties. Nothing tastes as good as fresh garlic! If you have a whole head of garlic, then you haven't really lived until you experience true Roasted Garlic. It's amazing, and there are so many uses for it. For example, you can try this Roasted Garlic Hummus , or make a Roasted Garlic Vinaigrette. Another huge favourite is Sourdough Garlic Bread, which makes a perfect pairing with hot soup or chowder on our cold winter evenings. I came across this Ginger Garlic Paste which can be used in a variety of ways, and I stumbled upon this recipe for Eggplant in Garlic Sauce, which is surely to be a big supper-time hit!
If you're looking for some interesting ways to work with your button mushrooms, you should give Michael's Best Button Mushrooms a go. I promise you will not be disappointed. Mushrooms are like green beans in that they are fast and easy and can be incorporated into so many types of meals. Other fabulous ways to cook with mushrooms include these Herbed Butter Mushrooms with Mozzarella or Spaghetti with Mushrooms and Garlic. Looking for a little mushroom flare? Impress your guests with Tofu and Mushrooms in Oyster Sauce or a Mushroom and Asparagus Risoto!
