Organic or not is totally your call, but I do encourage you to buy local while things are in season. The flavors of fresh can be compared to none!

So here is my bounty! 3 pkg of Swiss chard, 1 pkg fresh spinach, 2 heads of lettuce, 1 bunch scallion, 12 bulbs of garlic (which by the way will last me longer then this week, although not by much, we just love garlic!), 1 lg zucchini, 1 dz Farm Fresh Eggs, 4 1/2 lbs potatoes!! Beauty isn't it?
Lets start with zucchini: I got a total of 4 c grated! The zucchini was from HARC's garden ! Cost $1.00!!
Zucchini Deep Dish Pie and Salad (feeds 4 at $2.00 per person)
2 c grated Zucchini
1 small onion (or half a large)
3 strips of bacon
3/4 c flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp kosher salt
3/4 tsp black pepper
1 8 oz of JFF cream cheese, room temperature
3 eggs, room temperature
1/4 c Parmesan cheese
1/2 c milk
1 tbsp chopped basil
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a 10" deep dish pie pan. (or 2-8" regular pie pan)
In a large skillet fry bacon until crisp. Remove to a paper towel. Crumble when cooled. Remove all but 2 tbsp of fat from pan. Add onion and cook until softened and just turning golden. Allow to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl beat the eggs and cream cheese together until light and fluffy. With mixer on low add in the milk, Parmesan cheese, s/p, basil. Whisk together the flour and baking soda then slowly add to the wet ingredients. Fold in the zucchini, onion and bacon.
Pour into prepared pan (s) and place on a baking sheet.
Bake at 350 degrees F for 50-60 minutes. Remove from oven and place on a cooling rack. Let stand for 15 minutes before serving.
Salad
1 head of FairHaven lettuce
1 clove garlic, minced
s/p, to taste
1/3 olive oil
3 tbsp balsamic vinegar
hard cheese shavings
Rinse and drain the head of lettuce. Remove core and gently tear the leaves. In a medium bowl whisk together the oil, vinegar, garlic. Taste, adjust the flavor. (I like mine to be on the vinegar side). Season with s/p. The best way to see if the dressing is to your liking is to taste with a piece of lettuce.
Place lettuce in a bowl, drizzle with dressing, toss gently to just coat the leaves. Serve with a slice of pie and add cheese shavings.
