Ok, didn't know where to stick that...
My hubby has been complaining that we get this box every week and often the veg goes off or they go wrinkly and soft because I don't use them quickly enough.
I still have cauliflower and cabbage from last week.
Now one of the problems is that I haven't been cooking much lately and I often don't know what to do with some of the veg (although I actually like cooking but my non-vegan past makes me lazy about
inventing new dishes). Like spring greens - I made some pesto but didn't like it and I don't know what else to do with it...I am sick of soups and I am not the person to make 3-part meals very often (1 piece of protein, carbs like potatos or rice and then some veg). I like doing 1-pot dishes. But the recipes online are not always very exciting.
Some of the stuff comes every week, so I get more and more leftovers every week. I already asked them to not put leeks in as my husband doesn't like them and I get migraines from them.
But I don't wanna kick a fuzz and ask them to replace half the box with other veg. I mean what am I supposed to do with 2 bunches of celery? I don't like nibbling on it. So apart from soup I can't think of anything else.
On top of that, organic veg doesn't last very long so that doesn't help. I wanted to use more veg that's why I get the box but what's the point if I'm not using it? Instead we both just nibble all day on
fruit, nuts and rye crackers, avocados or maybe sometimes I do some potato wedges. But I really don't wanna end up cooking the same stuff every week. Lots of it are basics like onions and carrots. I now juice the carrots
because I don't like eating them. I really want to get more out of that box but I guess we will have to eat potatos every day now I also struggle to use the beetroot (which I usually don't like) I usually make soup out of it but that's all I can do with it which we both like...
Any ideas??
oh and we like stir frys but I think it's almost a waste to fry everything, don;t think that's the best way to use them ..
