Vegeburgers and Salsa Today I made vegeburgers (from a packet mix, cheat!) and salsa over Romaine lettuce with steamed asparagus. For the salsa I finely chopped up a stem of wet garlic, 2 spring onions, 6 very ripe tomatoes, one red medium hot chilli (de-seeded first) and a handfull of fennel leaves. Mushed it up together as much as I could without destroying the texture and left it to mingle for an hour.Spooned over the lettuce, plonked burgers and asparagus on top and served.

Welcome! Welcome to my new community!This is intended to be a place where I ramble about my organic fruit and veg box scheme, post pictures and recipes of what I've made with it. Each week, on a Thursday I get the fruit and veg box scheme from http://www.rivernene.co.ukWhat is a box scheme? Usually run by a local farm, it puts a selection of seasonally grown crops into the box, delivers it freshly picked/dug up direct to you with less transportation and packaging than the usual supermarkets. So you get fresher, healthier and cheaper produce.Last week in my box I got:bananascucumber lettuce spring greens sprouted seeds watercress tomatoessquashmini watermelonapplesThis Thursday coming I am looking forward to:broad beans courgettekohl rabi lettuce mangovine tomatoespeachesspring greens wet garlic applesAnyone else is very welcome to join in and post their box scheme goodies!
