I recently signed up for a CSA, which is essentially a goody box of seasonal vegetables delivered to my door weekly. I get 11 fruits and vegetables + a dozen eggs for $50/week. It’s great inspiration to cook seasonally and this salad is largely made from things from this past week’s box!

I have zero scientific evidence to support this but I feel like eating seasonally is good for me health wise? Like the nutrients available in seasonal vegetables are what my body needs during that season. And this salad is quite seasonal. This salad is also a textural delight with soft and roasty pieces, crunchy bits, and creamy goat cheese. The amount of nutrients and fiber in this will leave you feeling 10/10.

For my Bay Area followers: my farmer’s market stand at the Fort Mason farmer’s market opens this Sunday! Internally I am freaking out but also extremely excited to have a more permanent way to sell products and connect IRL.

As always thank you for subscribing! I have lots of fun holiday stuff in the works so stay tuned✨
