Dear people of Lekkernassûh,
This week’s package includes pumpkin, lettuce and courgette. With this produce, we suggest you try making a hearty vegetable soup: roast the pumpkin, parsnip, carrots, zucchini, corn, and tomatoes briefly in the oven with a little olive oil. Then simmer them in a large pot with water or vegetable broth and add the sliced spring onions and Swiss chard. Serve the soup warm with the lettuce as a fresh side salad.
Do not forget to change your status before Sunday 8pm, if needed. Enjoy!
