Such a lovely haul of veggies :) And how fun that you made the stew :) Also do you have a recipe for lettuce soup? Would love to try that.

Can do! Will share the recipe in an upcoming CSA post when the haul contains looseleaf lettuce. Oh and I haven’t made the stew yet, but it’s on the menu for this week!
