January's Organic Produce Delivery

Recently, we received our monthly organic produce delivery from Natural Living, a organic produce delivery service located in Center Point, Iowa.

Not only am I getting organic produce at a great price, but they deliver it right to my door. All I have to do is place a cooler with some ice at my front door on delivery day and when I come home I have a cooler full of delicious produce.

This month our order included Fair Trade bananas, blueberries, lemons, tangelos, locally grown mixed color carrots, garlic, green beans, green bell peppers, mixed baby greens salad, and locally grown turnips.

We started using Natural Living in November and I have been really happy with the produce we've received so far. Hopefully next month I'll remember to take a photo of the actual produce. 

I used one of the carrots (we already had some carrots on hand) and one of the turnips in a pot pie and they were delicious. One of the other carrots was used in stir fry. I'm planning on using the rest of the carrots and the other turnip in a vegetable soup next week. I ate of the bananas, but it wasn't as sweet as the ones I bought earlier in the week, but it was good. I froze the rest of the bananas to make banana bread later. I'm planing on mixing the blueberries in with vanilla and cream yogurt for my lunches. I'm still trying to decide what to do with the rest of the produce, but I'm sure it will all get eaten soon.
