We actually have a winter CSA share here too. All the root veggies you can eat. And then by spring...you can be shaped like a root veggie too. I do like the idea of making pepper sauces...huge hot pepper freak. Onions freeze? They will keep a while just hanging out in the drawer too, no? No…I don’t Chile.

Fine, I won't tell you. Easy to freeze stuff: blanched greens (spinach, kale, etc.) pureed cooked pumpkin pureed cooked tomato sauce (tomatillo, too) fire-roasted green chiles (yum) diced raw onion & peppers grated potatoes roasted eggplant blanched green beans You might also look into dehydrating food. :-) So, I guess you don’t want to hear about my year-round CSA shares, huh?

And I have the same summer fruit challenge. Eat it before it even has a chance of making it to the freezer. Oh, we have the same growing season challenge. And I have the same summer fruit challenge.

Amy- Good thinking. I think I will make a few sauces, pesto and tomato,...less bulk than the whole prepared dish, but will still capture the essence of the summer goodies.

It might hold up better than the vegetable itself would. What else you could do is make dishes and freeze those. It might hold up better than the vegetable itself would.
