A fall favorite shows up in boxes this week - brussels sprouts from Marr Pond Farm - delicious sliced in half, tossed with oil, salt and pepper and roasted in a 400° oven until crisp on the outside and tender on the inside. All the makings for a meal with a southwestern flare are available - roast sweet potatoes; cook black beans; chop chili peppers, ginger, sweet onions and cilantro; toss with dressing and accompany with salsa. Customize your box to include ingredients for complete meals - Common Wealth Farm is offering pasture-raised half turkey breasts and legs, whole and spatchcock chickens and their chicken grill pack; pork sausage, shaved steak, stir-fry sirloin, bratwurst, bacon, hot Italian chicken sausage and lots of other meat options available from local meat producers to add to your box. Add a sweet treat of Maple Cream and Syrup from Kinney's Sugarhouse to your box!
