I LOVE Bountiful Baskets!

Recently I've learned about a super cool produce co-op in our area called Bountiful Baskets. It is such fun and a great deal. Each monday afternoon- you log into their website- and purchase your basket online- for only $15. (some locations offer organic too- for a bit more money) Then on Saturday morning- you go to the pick-up location you specified and get your produce. We've had such fun seeing what's in the baskets for the week. Each week it varies what's in the basket- whatever they can get a good deal on. Here is this week's load.

Contents:

Fruit-

Cantaloupe

Honeydew

3 pkgs Blackberries

bag of apples

a bunch of bananas

8 kiwi

Veggies-

10 or so Roma Tomatoes

1 head leaf lettuce

1 large bunch of spinach

4 artichokes

package of radishes

2 cucumbers

I might be forgetting something- but all in all- I think it was a SUPER deal. Other weeks we've had fresh pineapple, carrots, celery, red potatoes, swiss chard (ok- I admit- I'd never had swiss chard before- we had to look online for a recipe- Ben and I thought it was good, Doodle LOVED it- Bug liked it, and Roo....well Roo doesn't like a lot of things)

More benefits- I've found we eat more fruits and veggetables when we have them around. Also we get to try new things.

Anyhow- check it out!
