I absolutely love fresh produce. I mean, most people do, right? When I studied abroad in Italy, I really started to love a lot of new vegetables because the produce was so fresh over there. In North Carolina, we have this thing called the Produce Box, where each week you can choose to have a box of produce picked by local farmers delivered to your house. I have been skipping the last few weeks because we have been out of town like crazy. But last week, I accidentally received a box instead of skipping one. It was packed full of leafy greens, cherry tomatoes and strawberries.
The thing about leafy vegetables (and fresh produce in general) is that it can go bad pretty quickly if it’s left unused. So after receiving a whole lot of kale and tomatoes, I tried to think of something I could make to use up the veggies before they went bad.
