Week 7 Recipes

Roasted Eggplant: Seems simple enough, but sometimes simplicity is best! We love giving our eggplant a light oil coating and throwing them in the oven. This will give you eggplant with a slightly charred, crunchy skin, but melt-in-the-mouth flesh. Though pre-treating your eggplant by salting and draining it will get rid of some of that extra moisture and lessen your cook time, that trick is meant for older eggplants that have developed a bitter taste- something you won’t need to worry about with these!

Cucumber Soup: Can you tell we like cold soups? Such an easy thing to make ahead of time and then save in the fridge for lunches or quick dinners. This soup stars cucumbers, but we recommend using the green onions and garlic to give it a kick.
