    JBG has a motley crew of members, but there's one thing you all have in common: ingredients! 

    Every week, hundreds of Austinites receive the same vegetables, herbs, and fruits from us.  This is a forum for CSA members to share recipe ideas with each other.  Don't know what you do with that kohlrabi you got in your box this week?  Ask your fellow community members for suggestions, or post your own!

    I've copied many of the recipes from our newsletters (provided by Melissa Vance) into this forum to get things started, but we really want to hear from you!  Let us know how you're using this week's CSA goodies.

    "Lettuce" Wraps!

    We used this weeks box (Items noted with *) to make a variation of our favorite lettuce wraps... However, we used cabbage* to wrap instead of iceberg lettuce. Not as crunchy and refreshing, but they held together so much better and tasted great!

    Filling:

    In a small pan, cook 1/2 c. thinly sliced carrots* in 1/2 c. water until all the water cooks away.

    While that cooks, cook in another pan, TVP reconstituted with low sodium veg broth (or 1 lb. ground meat... just not at our house), 1 c. mushrooms (sliced), 1 can sliced water chestnuts, drained, 3 cloves minced garlic, 2 Tbsp fresh ginger, 1/3 cup teriyaki (low sodium), 3 Tbsp peanut butter, 1 Tbsp rice vinegar, 1/4 cup hoisin sauce, 1/2 cup sliced green onion*. Add the carrots when they are cooked.

    When all this is cooked together, fill the cabbage leaves with it and some rice and we even added a little steamed, chopped chard* since we had it on hand for a little extra flavor and nutrients. YUM

    It seems like a lot of ingredients, but it's just a dump it together in the pan kinda meal. Delicious!
