100 things I made with my CSA deliveries, #3


Quesadillas with garlicky kale and pintos, Cholula for those who are not spicy-averse.

I made the quesadillas with flour tortillas (the ones sold as gorditas? like, a little thicker and made with sunflower oil? I don't know why they are not just tortillas, whatever), kale that had already been sauteed with olive oil and garlic, and pepper jack. Cheddar in Sophie's because she does not like the spice. The pintos I just cooked quickly with some sauteed vidalia onion, salt, pepper, and a handful of spinach. I served the pintos on the side and we added them to our quesadillas, because cooking those suckers with lots of filling in them is Hard.

I will definitely make them again, we all enjoyed them. Here is Sophie, chowing down:



Suddenly the spring CSA share is like greensapalooza, so...creative ways to use up greens is the thing, right now. Seriously, in this share we got: kale, sweet salad turnips with their greens on, swiss chard, cilantro, basil, spinach, and mustard greens. Also some other non-green things (frozen wild blueberries, potatoes, well, cucumber, but it's not a leafy green ;)), but OH MY GOD, GREENS. SO MANY.
