The dog days of summer are upon us, so this week we’re delivering some summer squash to you. We’ve packed this week’s box full of summer produce, and our weekly newsletter has lots of recipes to give our CSA members & blog followers (you!) ideas for how to use them.

This week, we picked:13738123_1181951095159386_2487882318062493786_o

  • squash
  • swiss chard
  • cucumbers
  • tomatoes (hydroponics & farm-fresh!)
  • chives
  • eggplant

There is quite a bit that you can do with summer squash, so we figured we’d cover a few ways to cook ’em.

1. This recipe for Grilled Summer Squash with Charred Chickpeas, Raisins + Garlic-Yogurt Sauce sounds fancy, but we think it looks pretty manageable.

2. Grilled Summer Squash Tacos – use this recipe as a starter, and load your tacos up with other farm-fresh foods… or add some grilled squash into your own favorite taco recipe!

Want to combine your squash, tomatoes, and eggplant in the same recipe? We found quite a few recipes that do just that…
1. Ratatouille with Fried Eggs
2. Easy Ratatouille with Chicken
3. Summer Vegetable Lasagna

Enjoy!
