Green Garlic - I told Farmer Derek this week I forget year to year how much I like this product (FYI he's been enjoying it chopped in his salads). It is less strong than mature garlic, and it can be sautéed, baked or grilled without getting bitter. A few things I have done with mine: made garlic bread, mixing chopped green garlic, parsley and olive oil and brushed onto bread. Baked until slightly brown. The garlic, even though a few bits were brown, was delicious; chopped up and added to marinades for grilled chicken and added to guacamole (again, a wonderful garlic flavor without being overpowering).

Bok choy, salad radishes, green garlic, chard, cilantro - made the Asian Style Cole Slaw from this site. This is a go to recipe for me for this time of the year. Try it!!

Kale - I made a Kale Caesar Salad and I also added chopped up kale to a Minestrone Soup I had in the freezer.
