Weekly Menu (5/6/12-5/12/12)

This week in our Bountiful Basket we got:

Strawberries, bananas, mangoes, green apples, lemons, a pineapple, tomatoes, lettuce, beets, green beans, and red potatoes.

I also got a Mexican pack with my basket and that contained:

Avocados, tomatillos, cilantro, green onions, poblanos, jalapenos, anaheim peppers, and limes. Since today is cinco de mayo, I'll be using most of this pack today making salsa verde for our tacos.

And I also got 8lb of strawberries, too. :)  I'll be making jam with most of them (and maybe a fresh strawberry pie or strawberry cupcakes, haven't decided which), but we'll set some aside to eat straight up.

I also have bananas, apples, baby carrots, broccoli, and half a cucumber left from last week.

This week for breakfast: Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins, Double Chocolate Zucchini Muffins, Waffles (I made and froze a batch today) and Cereal for the kids, and Homemade Yogurt with sliced fruit (strawberries, mangoes, and bananas) and/or Hard Boiled Eggs for me.
