If you're like me, finding new ways to use up all the CSA lettuce is one of the big challenges of the season. This recipe just came into my inbox and I must say, it looks pretty good, not to mention taking only about 30 minutes to prepare from start to finish. So, I'm sharing it with you.

Notes from Green Thumb Farm

Submitted by ktboogie on

Summer is here and the return of the heat. The last week has been very hot and our warm weather crops are doing well - tomatoes, peppers, eggplants, squashes and beans...while our cooler weather crops are winding down - peas, lettuces, herbs and other greens.
Fava beans are here for a brief harvest period. Beets, carrots and Swiss chard are starting. Fennel is ready to harvest for the next several weeks. We still have radishes for several more weeks. Onions are ready for harvest and we will be bringing them in also.
