Dear Friends of B & H Organic Produce,

Thank you all for another successful week at the Elverson Farmer's Market. Don't forget to tell your friends and neighbors about us. The more support we have the more vendors we will get.

Here is what we will have for our markets this weekend.
  • Salad Mix
  • Cucumbers
  • Summer Squash- perfect sizes for grilling
  • Arugula
  • Lettuce
  • Kale
  • Swiss Chard
  • Green Garlic
  • Parsley
  • Beets- 3 colors
  • Basil
And I forgot last week to remind you about our grass-fed beef. All our meat is raised on our farm and sold frozen as cuts. Here is what we will have for your grilling pleasure:
  • ground beef
  • patties
  • chip steak
  • delmonico steaks
  • tenderloin steaks
  • sirloin steaks
  • NY strip steaks.
And for this week's recipe:

Arugula Salad topped with Roasted Beets and Goat Cheese:
For a twist on this you can take the beets out early and put them on the grill to finish. Or if it is too hot for your oven simply boil the beets till soft and grill to finish. And don't bother peeling the beets. I never do and they are fine.
  • Slice the beets thin and place on a bed of arugula. The beets can be chilled for a cold salad or left hot and placed on the arugula will melt the arugula.
  • Top with a drizzle of olive oil and balsamic and a dolop of goats cheese. Amazing Acres goat farm located in Elverson has a great variety of goat cheese and it is sold at the market.
  • For a creative way to impress your friends. Prepare all 3 colors of beets separately and then mix them on top of the salad at the end. (if you cook all the colors together the colors will run)
Kale Chips: (this recipe is back by popular demand).
I eat kale at least once a week. Don't be afraid of this recipe and the dehydrator. You can prepare these in the oven at 300 but only for 3-4 minutes or they will burn.

Thank you again and have a super week.
