Recipe Types: Side Dishes


Buffalo Cauliflower

We don’t get too much cauliflower in the share and it’s season is short. Having tried cauliflower rice, mashed cauliflower and cauliflower pizza crust, this may be my favorite use for cauliflower to date. Food Network’s recipe is great as-is, but if cutting corners to save time is your thing, perhaps make this dish in 2 phases as suggested in this post.


Tomato and Cabbage Tabbouleh

This one is from Bon Apetít and was quite a lovely use for those ripe red tomatoes and head of cabbage. It’s a seasonal trifecta as the mint in the PYO herb garden is usually at peak just as these ingredients are rolling through the share boxes. It can be adjusted easily for gluten free or paleo diets.


Farmer Jamie’s Tomato Pie

Got tomatoes? This one is great for that influx of ripe heirlooms! A homemade or store bought pie crust will be needed, but the rest is simply simple. You’ll need some time (a few hours) to allow the tomato slices to lose their liquid, so plan for some prep in the morning and things should be ready for baking by dinner time.
