Dear Friends of B & H Organic Produce,
Hope you had a fun 4th of July.
Don't forget to stay hydrated this week.
I will also start posting this email on our blog each week. This will be a way for you to look up recipes. Simply go to our blog (which may be linked from our website) http://bhorganics.blogspot.com/ and if you look in the top left hand corner you can type in a vegetable and if I ever posted a recipe it will come up.
This is what we will be bringing to market on Saturday July 10th (plus a few other surprises)
- Salad Mix
- Radicchio - see recipe below
- Beans
- Summer Squash- patty pan, heirloom zucchini and crookneck
- Cucumbers
- Arugula
- Lettuce
- Basil
- Carrots
- Beets
- Garlic
- Kale
- Parsley
- Swiss Chard

This recipe calls for the "treviso" radicchio which is the taller or longer type. However, you may also use the more rounded type. We will have both types at market this week.
Note that radicchio is very high in Potassium. Why is that important? Potassium helps the body regulate water balance and is an electrolyte. In this weather that is super important. So put away your colored gatorade and eat radicchio.
Have a great week,
Erica
