Spaghetti Squash Hash
Below is a note from Nina, one of the Fort Greene members, with some delicious meal ideas. I know that a list of dishes is often more helpful to me than a bunch of recipes, since they get my wheels turning, but I can still make the meals my own.
The list from my kitchen, thus far through the CSA season, includes: Sauteed Onion and Potato Frittata with Parmesan (pictured), Potato and Carrot Hash with Poached Eggs, Roasted Squash and Spelt
Berry Salad with a Mustard & White Wine Vinegar Dressing, Roasted Carrots And Beets with Fresh Ginger and Farro, Mom’s Apple Cake (again, pictured, thought this is not the one I made. see Smitten Kitchen for more information).

Hi Annie-
I am having a great time with all of my new foods. Having interesting produce has truly jump-started my cooking habit, and made me much more apt to have people over to my place to eat!
Last night I made
-carrot-pumpkin-ginger soup with sour cream and sage
-spaghetti squash - parmesan patties with apple sauce
- sauteed beet salad with onions and feta over romaine and those beautiful watermelon radishes
Here is the spaghetti squash recipe I found online. Easy and tasty, highly recommend!
