Recipes

This week’s recipe is from the latest issue of Vegetarian times magazine. It’s super easy and served in a bowl for easy cleanup!

One-of-Each Vegetable and Rice Bowl

Ingredients: Serves 4

1 cup white basmati rice
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large red onion, cut into thin wedges
1 large fennel bulb, cut into thin wedges
1 medium turnip, quartered and cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
1 large carrot, sliced on bias (1/2 cup)
1/3 cup dry vermouth or white wine (optional)
1 6-oz. can salt-free tomato paste
2 large cloves garlic, minced (2 tsp.)
3 sprigs fresh marjoram or thyme
1/2 cup halved dried apricots
1 tablespoon butter (optional)
1 cup cooked or canned chickpeas, warmed

Directions:

1. Cook rice according to package directions.

2. Heat oil in large saucepan or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add onion, fennel, turnip, and carrot, and stir to coat with oil. Sauté 5 minutes or until well browned. Stir in vermouth (or wine) if using, and cook 30 seconds. Add tomato paste, garlic, marjoram (or thyme sprigs), and 3 cups of water. Add apricots and season with salt and pepper if desired.

3. Cover, reduce heat to medium, and simmer 20 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Remove herb sprigs, and stir in butter if using.

4. Serve vegetable mixture over rice. Sprinkle with chickpeas.

Enjoy!

Market News

Good things in the market news this week.

We welcomed five new customers last week. It’s great to have you with us, and thank you! Spread the word about all the CFM has to offer!

We are looking for one, possibly two, delivery drivers for the Monteagle and Sewanee areas. Since Linda is now a co-market manager, she needs to relinquish delivering to customers. (She hasn’t yet figured out how to be in two places at the same time!) Drivers must have their own transportation (a truck is really helpful for the Sewanee area) and be very dependable. Each delivery is paid for by the customer (drivers set their own rates), and drivers receive their checks on market day just as the growers do.

To make the new driver(s)’ lives easier, Linda has detailed directions to every customer she’s delivered to in the past three years! If you’re interested in becoming a delivery driver for the CFM, please call Linda Boynton at 931-592-8384.

Dogwood Valley Greenhouse has reduced prices on their begonia hanging baskets. The “regular” size baskets, originally $10, are now $7. The larger baskets, originally $15, are now $11. Order these nice full baskets while there are still some left!
