✨This week’s recipes✨
🌶️FAJITA NIGHT!🌶️
Chop your green peppers and red onions, round up your leftover avocados from last week: It's fajita night! Slice and sizzle your veggies, mix up a protein like Deep Roots Chicken/Beef or beans from our add-ons, and snag some of our corn tortillas for an easy peasy, infinitely adaptable, crowd pleaser dinner. For inspo, here's a vegan fajita veggie recipe, and here's one that whips up chicken fajitas in a sheet pan (!!!)
If you're looking for another fajita night dish, these Skillet Refried Beans with Snap Pea and Radish are such a spring-y take on a classic side!
🍲 SOUP-ER DUPER🍲
This extra vibrant Roasted Tomato Soup with Caramelized Onions looks like pure savory deliciousness. I love their idea of adding in coconut milk (add-on!) for extra creaminess that just happens to be vegan. Once you whip up some tomato soup, you know you'll crave some grilled cheese for dipping. How about you put your cremini mushrooms to good use and add them into a Mushroom Grilled Cheese? A killer combo for everyday decadence.
Grab your immersion blender, we're making Sweet Potato Carrot Soup. This one has a super simple list of ingredients so that your produce can shine. Make a ton now since it freezes very well! I'd take a tip from the recipe commenters and add in some smoked paprika, a fave seasoning we have available as an add on.
⏰ SPRING FORWARD ⏰
A Radish Salad is just about as spring-y as it gets. It would rock with an egg on top as a lunch, or as a hearty side salad with dinner (now that it's no longer dark by dinnertime!) That salad is really an excuse to make one of our favorite zero-waste innovations: Radish Green Pesto!!! Don't let those tops end up in the trash when they could transform into a nutty, cheesy sauce, ready to top your salad (or pasta, or beans, or toast!)
If you're into fruit in salad, a Spring Salad with Radishes and Strawberries feels appropriate this week since you get Strawberries!
Prepare your favorite pizza dough/ foccacia and make a Zucchini Ricotta Flatbread. You can spruce up the ricotta with some extra lemon and a little zest for a centerpiece dish.
Ready for something sweet? This Lemony Tea Cake is super simple to make, super hard to mess up, and a great back-pocket loaf cake to always have around!
