All CSA, all the time

that is what we named our supper last night. Honestly, having to blog  what we eat persuaded us to cook last night. Besides we were too tired to go out. So, "all CSA, all the time" turned out pretty well. In fact, I might even make it again.

  • 3 med. potatoes, boiled (I used purply-pink potatoes from the CSA)
  • 1/4 c. milk
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1 onion, chopped (from the CSA!)
  • 1 tbsp. oil
  • 1 lb. broccoli (from the CSA!)
  • 4 med. carrots, diced (from the CSA!)
  • 1 fresh tomatoes
  • 2 bunches Swiss chard (from the CSA!)
  • 1 tsp. salt

So basically, you mash the potatoes with the milk and some salt. Then in a pan you sautee the onion in the olive oil, then add salt, then when that looks good, you add the carrots and the broccoli and let that sautee for a good 10 minutes. then I added the tomatoe and all
of the swiss chard and let that sit for about 3 minutes. Then I dumped it in a baking dish and covered the top with the potatoes, then baked it in the over for about 15 min to get the potatoes brown on top. Its the CSA version of shepards pie. I think I would add some cooked lentils next time. Scott made due with a sausage on the side.

As for me, i dumped hot sauce on top. Yum!

Also, the mashed potato on top was a pretty light pink, so Bee thought it was princess pie. She ate the broccoli picked out from the middle but otherwise wasn't impressed with much but the color.
