Growing up in a family full of picky eaters, I was never exposed to a variety of vegetables. My vegetable intake consisted mainly of potatoes and corn with the occasional carrot. Over the last several years of living away from my parents I had slowly added a few more vegetables to my diet.
It wasn’t until signing up for a CSA at Cane Creek Farm last year that the variety of vegetables I consumed on a regular basis (and enjoyed) took off. Faced with a weekly box of farm-fresh veggies, determination to eat healthy, and creativity; I was able to make it through the first year with ease and couldn’t wait to sign up for this year.
Here is a list of the vegetables that I now eat regularly (and enjoy) that I didn’t eat at all just 12 months ago:
- Bok choy
- Cabbage
- Kale
- Lettuce (all kinds)
- Mustards
- Spinach
- Swiss Chard
- Eggplant
- Squash (all kinds)
- Asparagus
- Celery
- Fennel
- Leek
- Beet
- Parsnip
- Radish
- Turnip
