✨This week’s recipes✨

Everything's Coming up Rosemary

Rosemary Lemon Chicken is a classic, easy use of your fresh Rosemary, and a great reason to snag a Deep Roots Chicken from the add ons. While the oven is hot, pop in some Rosemary Garlic Roasted Potatoes for a fitting side. For maximum efficiency, why not arrange the potatoes with the chicken and cook them together for an all-in-one rosemary extravaganza?

Channel everyone's quarantine baking last April and whip up a Rosemary Foccacia! This dish is awesome since you can add in whatever roast veg odds and ends you have around. I love the idea of scallions in here, some caramelized fennel, or maybe some roast yellow squash. You could even go sweet with strawberries if you're feeling extra bold

Craving dessert? Clementines would be a bright and delicious choice of citrus in a Rosemary, Olive Oil, and Orange. A cake like this is subtle enough for a snack even when you don't want something too sweet. This is the kind of treat that gets even better as it sits for a few days after it's made (if you can wait that long!), so bake one off now and be rewarded all week!

Spring Picnic 🧺

You've got all the ingredients this week for some perfect dishes to eat outdoors. Make an Orange, Fennel, and Arugula salad, or mix up your Watercress and Strawberries for an ideal spring salad. An Arugula Pesto Pasta makes a classic main, or Cherry Tomato Couscous will serve you just as well. Now make a French Apple Cake for an easy to transport dessert, and go picnic!

Something heartier

Yes to this Lemon Asparagus Risotto! We have the arborio rice, grated Parm, and chicken stock you'll need in our add-ons, so we're your one stop shop on the path to this incredible springtime dinner. This one really hits the spot on chilly nights after sunny days, like we often get this time of year. An interesting secret ingredient in this recipe: coconut milk!

Fennel lovers: Check out this Garlicky Roasted Fennel Pasta! This recipe has you roast your fennel and garlic together to cut their sharpness and bring out their sweet flavor. I'm super excited to try this one!

Drawing inspiration from this Green Curry with Spring Vegetables, you can throw just about any produce you like into a nice green curry. Asparagus, yellow squash, and potatoes will all shine here! Serve with salad from your produce, and rice from the add ons, and don't forget to grab some coconut milk while you're at it!

I stand by my recommendations from last time we had Yellow Squash! This mellow, delicious vegetable is your friend when it comes to versatile sides. You can always chop it and pop it in the oven at 400F for half an hour (tossed with some olive oil and maybe grated parm?), but I think you should take a slightly heavier route and turn your yellow squash into a creamy, savory side this week! This squash gratin looks quick and delicious. Or, cream your squash in a classic southern casserole, for an even richer side.
