Back in Action

It's the start of the 2010 CSA Season!!! So exciting. We are starting the summer off with lots of leafy greens - that means delicious salads and stir fries are in the works for the next couple of weeks. I am stocking up my refrigerator with the colorful veggies from the local supermarket that won't arrive in the share until later in the summer (peppers, shallots, carrots, mushrooms, cucumbers, tomatoes, etc). And, we'll also start the season off with a super simple, basic stir fry...

Leafy Green Stir Fry
Ingredients:
Bok Choy
Red Pepper
1 Shallot
Mushrooms
Tomatoes
Cooked shrimp
Salt/pepper/marinade

--> Wash the leafy bok choy really well (all the leafy greens arrive from the farm with fresh local dirt :) ). Throw it all in a high-sided pan and let wilt up a little but make sure to add the rest of the veggies while the bok choy still has its bright green color. Throw in the chopped peppers and shallot and let cook over medium heat for 3-5 minutes before adding the mushrooms and tomatoes. If your shrimp is already cooked but cold, add at the last minute and cook ~1 min or until the shrimp is warm. Sprinkle salt & pepper and if you want, add a couple of tablespoons of your favorite marinade. Serve hot and enjoy!!
