Whats in this week's box? 9/12/13

If you don't get enough fresh fruits and vegies, you really might want to check out SLO Veg. They basically deliver the Farmer's Market to your door and bring you some stuff that you may have nevered ventured to try before, too. It's like getting a surprise present every week. You can feel good about feeding your family healthy and delicious produce while support local farmers at the same time!

We got some great looking lettuce in our box this week, so I am making a nice salad tonight with it. I have sort of been off salads for a while, but I really need to put that crunch back into my diet. I made a salad with the little cherry tomatoes we got last week, and added some sliced sweet peppers. I will top it with a homemade Ranch dressing and chew, chew, chew!
