And the Recipe I am Making for Dinner
Today's delivery arrived at 2:15pm. When I opened the box, I almost felt like it was Christmas. Everything looked so good, like it was fresh picked.
The kale was a beautiful green with nice shiny leaves, the red pepper was beautifully sectioned. The green onions, cucumber and radishes looked like they had just been pulled as did the potatoes. YUM! The only bad thing was the totally green bananas. It will be a while before they will ripen enough to eat, however, they were nice looking otherwise.

I already have a recipe in mind to make for dinner tonight....a Tomato Kale Casserole.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350
Prepare pasta per usual, and drain, then return to pot
Saute pepper, onion, garlic, mushrooms and carrot in olive oil until softened
Add chopped kale to the skillet and stir until mixed
Turn off the heat under the skillet and cover, letting sit for 5 or 6 minutes
While that mixture is sitting, add Parmesan cheese and pepper flakes to pasta and stir
Add the kale mixture to the pasta and season with salt, pepper and Italian seasonings
Add the meat and stir until well mixed
Pour into a cooking sprayed 13 x 9 glass pan and sprinkle generously with Parmesan cheese
Bake about 30 minutes until bubbly and the cheese on top turns golden
Sounds delicious, I sure hope it is, I will let you know tomorrow!
