A butternut squash crust sounds fabulous, and I would never turn down cheese, much less five of them. And the tomatoes are the icing on the cake so to speak. They look like cherries...so pretty, and I can't wait for the weather to turn and fresh local produce to start popping up again.

I picked up a package of heart-shaped cheese-filled ravioli at Costco, tossed them with sour cream & milk, dunked each one in breadcrumbs and Shake Shake, then baked them. Served alongside some spaghetti sauce I'd put up in the fall, and a salad, with cake for dessert.<br /><br />I will never, nah, won't say never, how 'bout I have no desire to boil ravioli ever again. Baked is so much better.<br /><br />Thanks!kirsten@FarmFreshFeastshttp://www.farmfreshfeasts.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4689405125611757524.post-8225535259927779692013-02-16T04:05:38.151-08:002013-02-16T04:05:38.151-08:00Jamie,

But I only have 2 packages of Heather and InHerChucks' recipe for fresh tomato pesto left . . . and after that I will be so sad.<br />March will be a very green month here on the blog--Green Eggs No Ham on up through a Tremendously Green Pizza.

Start an occasional pizza treat night! <br />If you do the weekly thing, then the family starts expecting the weekly thing. <br /><br />Just like the composting pigs . . . my spouse loves grapes, and started giving them each a slightly soft grape in the morning as he'd prepare his lunch. Then the pigs started loudly demanding their daily grapes (which is funny because they are 3 pounds but pack a lot of sound into that smallish package). <br /><br />I still find it an adventure to come up with new pizza ideas each week, so I'm loving it, but I see my spouse getting put upon by the pig monster he created, and I just want to warn you of the consequences.<br />kirsten@FarmFreshFeastshttp://www.farmfreshfeasts.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4689405125611757524.post-28397775300929611162013-02-16T03:53:27.715-08:002013-02-16T03:53:27.715-08:00Melissa-

Someone else with a memory for obscure movie quotes!<br />Thanks for the comment love, I cannot believe how many times I've edited this post [a week and a half ago I learned the name of the tomato I'd used for the pesto, and the farmer's comment about Valentines gave me the intro to the post written a month ago!]<br /><br />I really think it requires a sense of adventure, like you say a food adventure, to initially join a CSA. Once you make the mental switch to the Iron Chef thing it's great fun, but if you're planning your menu out on Saturday then get a box on Wednesday you just can't flow properly.<br /><br />Thanks!kirsten@FarmFreshFeastshttp://www.farmfreshfeasts.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4689405125611757524.post-56340921084492432882013-02-16T03:48:33.941-08:002013-02-16T03:48:33.941-08:00Julie,

My most-favorite way in the world to eat zucchini is zucchini pancakes, so I could easily picture a butternut latke. Yum!<br />I don't think it makes you lazy to get your dough from a great local source--it makes you practical and efficient and supportive of a local business. I mean, sure, I could tap the couple of maple trees in my yard and collect the sap and boil it down and make a couple of teaspoons of syrup, but it's more efficient to pick up a jug at the farmer's market. Which reminds me, I need to do that as we're nearly out.<br />Thanks!kirsten@FarmFreshFeastshttp://www.farmfreshfeasts.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4689405125611757524.post-89381851667244672042013-02-16T03:44:08.851-08:002013-02-16T03:44:08.851-08:00Sarah,
