So Much Deliciousness
by Linda Dansbury

The veggie variety is expanding almost weekly - there are so many choices of produce and of how to enjoy them as so many of these veggies are versatile in the ways you can enjoy them. Here are a few things we enjoyed this past week. Since we are getting into high zucchini season, I will probably be bringing out the air fryer for zucchini fries and will prepare some type of zucchini pizza boats in the coming week(s). Please share how you are enjoying your harvest by emailing me at lindadansbury@comcast.net and please put Anchor Run in the subject line.

Lettuce, radicchio, fennel, parsley, scallions, cucumber - made a "veggie" salad - saying this because there was a high ratio of veggies to lettuce. I shave the fennel so it doesn't dominate and made a slightly more vinegary dressing. Topped with a few crumbles of feta cheese - a very nice counterpoint to a grilled steak.

Cucumber, scallion, cilantro - made the Spiced Cucumber Sticks from this site - I found this recipe last year and made it a couple of times but this summer it has become our go-to snack. Although I make it pretty much as stated in the recipe, I am sure you can change up the spices - maybe substitute cumin or coriander for the chaat.

Cucumber, scallion, cilantro - enjoyed the Vietnamese Cucumber Salad, again on this site - yum!

Zucchini, scallion, radicchio - grilled these up and loved them with just flaky sea salt and good olive oil. The leftovers I had in a frittata for lunch the next day.
