Last week’s Clark Organic Farm CSA share included a beautiful bunch of broccoli rabe. One of my favorite ways to use this vegetable is in a pasta dish. The starch in the pasta seems to be a perfect balance to the distinctly earthy flavor of broccoli rape. Top it off with some heat (red pepper)…

One of the best features of our CSA share at Clark Organic Farm, is that we get to go out into the fields and pick our own additions to the market shares available every week in the barn. There is something calming and therapeutic to being out in the fields, and while it is early…

We have a bit of an HVAC issue in our condo currently, meaning we have no air conditioning on some fairly warm almost-summer days. Living in a renovated brick mill building, the sun has warmed up the brick walls and sills, and so, I have been in search of a dinner-time cool soup. On one…

Part of our CSA share included green garlic, which I had not heard of before. Different from garlic scapes, green garlic is baby garlic or garlic before it develops into segments or cloves. It has a mild flavor, but will need to be cleaned thoroughly (think leeks). Forager|Chef has lots of information on using green…

Clark Farm CSA, how we have missed you! This was our first week of the Clark Farm Summer CSA (more info on the CSA here); the difference in produce we get from our CSA share and those we find in local food stores is indisputable. This week’s share includes leafy greens (kale, lettuces, arugala), radishes,…

With all that is going on in the world, the one thing I feel I have some control over is what and how I eat. With that in mind, I recently acquired America’s Test Kitchen’s Anti-Inflammatory Cookbook and have been leaning in on including more whole grains, more vegetables, and a hopefully more healthy approach…

After several weeks of indulgent eating, my digestive system was more than ready for a return to our regularly scheduled meals. Our Winter Share at Clark Farms CSA has ended, but we still have some wonderful long-storage veggies with which to cook. This week, I used the last of the organic purple cabbage and winter…

In our family, we have shared kitchen duties, so full disclosure, this recipe was prepared by Adrien and engineered to use lots of our Clark Farm organic produce and their ground lamb. The recipe was so unlike the shepherd’s pie recipes that found their way into our school cafeterias and even quite different from what…

I freely admit to making changes to recipes to reflect whatever we have in our pantry. This roasted salmon, one-pan dinner is no exception to that – we’ve received an abundance of potatoes from our Clark Farm Winter CSA Share, so in place of buying new, presumably red potatoes specifically for this recipe, I used…

Our Winter Share from Clark Farms Carlisle included a beautiful head of organic purple cabbage. Cabbages, especially the purple variety are great nutrient dense foods, excellent for reducing inflammation. After the past few weeks of holiday eating and indulging, this salad was a great way to incorporate some more, shall we say, nutrition-friendly foods into…
