Week 3 at P.S. 11!

Yesterday we received a wonderful basket of goodies: Boothyby blonde cucumbers, regular slicing cucumber, cherry tomatoes, red onions, and nectarines. Greek salad seemed perfect! It's refreshing and offers many bright flavors that embrace summer. For dessert, a dish similar to last week's peaches, but with a twist: Sauteed nectarines with a balsamic reduction. Naturally the children chopped, peeled and worked on preparing our dishes--they even cut onions! We combined all the diced veggies, some oregano, a few splashes of red wine vinegar, extra-virgin olive oil, salt and pepper and allowed it to marinate a bit. Moments later we were enjoying a wonderful salad with an equally delicious dessert. Both of which were quickly gobbled it up--Awesome! Can't wait to cook with you all next week!

BTW, Love the aprons!!!
