Recipes

Roasted Beet Frittata
from Naturallyella.com

A simple meal – try it with blue cheese or feta!

Serves: 3-4
4 medium beets, a mix of red and gold
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
6 large eggs
¾ cup whole milk
¼ teaspoon sea salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
¼ cup crumbled blue cheese
Preheat oven to 400?. Cut beets into ¼" slices and toss with 1 tablespoon olive oil (toss gold separate from red if you do not want the color to bleed). Spread out in a single layer on a baking tray covered with parchment paper. Roast until tender, 20-25 minutes.
Once beets are close to being tender, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in an 8? cast iron skillet over medium. Whisk together eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and blue cheese. Pour into hot skillet and let cook for 2-3 minutes.
Take beets and layer in the eggs as they cook. Continue to cook for 2-3 more minutes, or until bottom begins to set.
Transfer skillet to oven, still at 400?, and continue to cook until set, 8-12 minutes.
Serve with extra blue cheese if desired.

Market News

Hello!

We are pleased to report the recent freeze didn’t do any real damage to the field crops planted or the strawberry flowers. That is the good thing about it being a wet spring and therefore a little late with the planting – there wasn’t too much out there that needed to be protected from the cold.

It is Easter week, so this is the time to stock up on items for your Easter festivities! There are lots of great beets and fresh spring greens up, as well as the traditional meats from Bear Creek Farm and Wedge Oak.

The Bloomy Rind Cheese shop has some new items up this week! For a great gift for a not-so-little companion, check out their “Cheese-ster Basket”!! Who wouldn’t want to wake up Easter morning to a great selection of artesian cheese, in a cute box all ready to dive into? And if you’re going to someone else’s house for the day, what a great hostess gift it would make!

And don’t forget the flowers to brighten your day! There are still some ranunculus flowers available. This will be the last week to sign up for the Pre-Paid Bouquets, so if you love flowers please treat yourself for a bounty of summer beauty at a discounted price!

As always, thanks so much for your support, and we look forward to seeing you Wednesday, April 1st!

John and Tallahassee
