Since I have my membership to the organic vegetable box, I am eating fruits and vegetables in season. That is a pretty big change as I didn’t realise how many fruits and vegetables I used to eat out of season. In fact, I used to choose my meal first and made the grocery list, now it is working on the other way around: I receive the vegetable box and then I make the meal plan for the week.
To be honest, following the season can be quite boring, so I was so glad to have tomato and courgette in my last box. I cooked them straight away and I made a really simple recipe that my mum cooked last time when I visited my parents: tomato and courgette oven cooked with olive oil and mixed herbs.
I decided to serve them on some Ebly which is a cooked wheat, quite common in France. The oven baked vegetable can also be served on rice or pasta such as Orzo.
