It’s already week 6 for our farm share boxes and July is cruising by just as quickly for me as the rest of the year has. This week I am attempting to make kale chips for the first time-we have a potato chip addiction in our house and it would be lovely to find a healthy alternative that my almost 3 year old son will eat. After doing some research I found a nice blog with a great recipe with lots of tips and tricks. Here is the link to the Flawless baked kale chip recipe.

Last year I froze/saved all of my currents and made a black current/red current jam that my family really enjoyed and I plan on doing the same this year. If your unsure of what to use your red or black currents for here are a few recipe ideas that you can try them out on 🙂
A couple of breakfast options-Black currant smoothie and other jucied recipes and a lovely muffin recipe.
For all the dessert lovers a black currant and white chocolate creme brulee.
Last but not least a black currant sauce for red meat.
Remember if you have any questions about your boxes contents-or recipe ideas don’t hesitate to ask, Jennifer or myself will happily help in any way we can. Enjoy your boxes this week and have a great rest of the week/weekend!
