Enchalasagna
I found some kale in the back of my fridge that had wilted. I also had chicken chorizo sausage, Del Carmen black beans, and the new queso quesadilla cheese from Hemme Brothers so my quick enchilada casserole built like a lasagna was in order!
Wheat Berry Salad
This is another versatile dish that can be a side dish or a main. Change up the ingredients and you have so many possibilities here.
Wagyu Smashburgers
Ok they aren’t really smashed, but I thawed the meat before the storm rolled in and by dinner time our power wasn’t restored. I had to use a flashlight. Thank goodness for a gas stove!
Duck Egg Decadent Bundt Cake
Duck eggs are a bit larger than chicken eggs and have a bigger yolk to white ratio. Baking with them is perfect because they make cakes moist and rich!
Asparagus and Ramp Frittata
This is just a crustless version of a quiche. If you want to make this recipe in a pie shell, please do! It’s a very versatile recipe that can change with seasonal ingredients...
Simple Broiled Salmon
Sometimes the simplest method is the best.

Sautéd Radishes
Every radish is a breakfast radish!
Roasted Winter Squash
Easy peasy and simply delicious
Pan Seared Butter Lettuce
If you were one of the lucky people to get a slightly wilted head of butter lettuce, I’ve got the perfect recipe for you!
Irish-ish Stew
Here’s another super versatile recipe that uses all those turnips we have on hand, alongside potatoes, cabbage, and sausage.

Miso Roast Turnips
Wondering what to do with those turnips we’ve been getting? Here’s your answer. With a few simple ingredients, you can make something the whole family will love. You can make them sweet or savory by swapping a few ingredients.
Sweet Potato with Rarebit
Rarebit is a welsh cheese sauce made with sharp cheddar and dark beer. It’s the perfect savory compliment for a baked sweet potato.
Bison Meatloaf
I made a double batch of this during or last snowstorm. It’s so good and easy. Because the bake time is 1 hour I usually throw in a few potatoes while I’m baking it and everything is done at the same time.
Enchilada Lasagna
This is so versatile! You can add whatever fillings you prefer. This one has shredded chicken, spinach, and black beans. Chunks of winter squash or sweet potatoes are fantastic here. You can use beef, pork, or tofu. Clean Plate Pantry’s New Mexican Red Chili Sauce is rich and delicious as the sauce here.
African Peanut Stew 2
This is one of my favorites to make when winter squash comes in season. You can also use sweet potatoes instead of squash.
Stir-Fried Cabbage
This is a super easy side dish or you can add protein and make it a main.
Cauliflower Adobo
Here’s a fun and different side dish for thanksgiving or any occasion. It’s got a bit of sweet, a bit of tang, and a lot of flavor with very little effort. If you are lucky to get purple cauliflower it’s also gorgeous!
Broccoli Cheddar Potato Soup
With the weather turning cold and rainy, I think a warm bowl of soiup is in order.
Kale Caesar Salad
Make your favorite salad a superfood!
Easy Au Gratin Potatoes
Comfort food at its best. This recipe would be a great opportunity to add in some sunchokes with the potatoes if you aren't familiar with them.
Tip: Freeze Your Peppers!
Do you know you can freeze peppers? This time of year I have so many peppers rolling around in my fridge. When winter hits and I make chili, stew, soup, or meatloaf, I am happy I took the time to chop and freeze them.
Spaghetti and Zoodles with Meatballs
If you want your family to eat more veggies, hide them in plain sight. I have found that if I mix spaghetti with zucchini spirals (zoodles) I don’t even know I’m eating them! All ingredients are Fair Shares.
Easy Roasted Patty Pan Squash
by Beth Sorrell
This is how I roast all my veggies.
(Sara's note: I roast everything to within an inch of it's life--for an hour or more--so it's caramelized and charred; it makes even your least favorite veggies delicious!)
Celery Apple Salad
This recipe is perfect for the celery we received. Mine was a tad bitter by itself, so mixed with the apple and adding a light vinaigrette was the perfect balance. It’s just so easy to make too!
Salade Nicoise
Simple, yet satisfying, and pretty to look at. Substitute at will.
Cucumber Salad
Simple, fast and delicious!
Fig and Cantaloupe Salad with Homemade Balsamic Glaze
Almost Homemade Pizza
Sometimes you just want a homemade pizza and Fair Shares makes it so easy! Frozen dough, jarred sauce, and fresh mozzarella are all you need!
Feta Dill Zucchini Bread
This was so delicious! I lean towards the savory side so I was excited to make this. I had the one slice and then my dog somehow got it off the counter and ate the whole thing! I’m making another loaf right now.
Blueberry Cinnamon Crumb Muffins
You'll definitely want to get this recipe under your belt while blueberries are still available!
Simple Sauté of Celtuce
Celtuce is a Chinese lettuce. The leaves are edible raw, but the stalk needs to be peeled to be eaten. The stalk has a subtle nutty taste, so I gave it a quick sauté with just a few ingredients.
Garlic Scape Falafel
I get so excited when garlic scapes are in season. I basically use them in any recipe calling for garlic, but this is a favorite.
Turkey Zucchini Meatballs
This recipe was actually for burgers but I don’t have buns so I made meatballs. They turned out beautifully and I think this recipe is best for meatballs because the meat was pretty sticky. You can try making burgers but they may fall apart.
Sizzling Mint Zucchini Salad
This recipe is inspired by two local dining experiences...This salad is lovely and simple. You can add protein or some grains to make it a meal.
Roasted Asparagus Salad with Mayfair Dressing
This recipe is inspired by two local dining experiences...This salad is lovely and simple. You can add protein or some grains to make it a meal.
Miso Roasted Japanese Turnips
You can eat these right out of the oven or serve them at room temperature with a salad.
Daikon Refrigerator Salad
What to do with the Daikon radishes? Make a refrigerator salad! You can call it a slaw if you want, but this is what I call anything mostly raw veg that can keep in my refrigerator for several days.
Mushroom Risotto
When I saw that fellow member Jamie Valencheck Shupp was making mushroom broth [for Fair Shares,] I had to try it in my fave risotto recipe.
Frittata
I love this dish because it’s easy, versatile, and fairly healthy. You can eat it for any meal or freeze it for future meals.
