We had another full bounty from the CSA this week. Included in our loot was: kitchen greens, TONS of basil, an onion, some tomatoes, some yellow squash, zucchini, and eggplants. We also got yellow banana peppers, but J knows I always struggle with how to use these, so he dropped them on the barter table. He picked up 2 additional eggplants in their place.
Now just a quick note about eggplant. I personally don't mind them, but again am limited in how I use them (think ratatouille/moussaka). J doesn't really care for them, so when I heard he brought home
3, I about fell over. Then, after a quick discussion, I decided I'd try my hand at baba ganoush, the close relative to hummus--and let me tell ya, we eat a LOT of hummus in our family. I'm hoping that the Noodle will overlook the eggplant factor and focus on the similarities-to-hummus factor and gobble it up. It will be pureed, after all, thus erasing any eggplant/vegetable connection.
As far as these pictures of the Noodle go, I think we're heavy into that "I'm-going-to-act-like-a-lunatic-in-every-photo" stage. Lovely.
