Week 51 - Circus

We've got a busy week ahead, with a few days in town followed by more than two weeks of vacation. Before this crazy week gets started, however, the family is off to see Cirque du Soleil to celebrate my birthday.  Given the ingredients in the box this week, the circus seemed like a theme that could be carried through to this week's meal planning. I looked for recipes that - for the most part - put together two or more ingredients that might not necessarily seem like they'd be a match. We'll see if some of these recipes taste less crazy than they sound.

In the box this week

(top) lettuce, sorrel, spinach, kale

(bottom) broccoli, bunching onions, radishes, lemons, apples, tomatoes, strawberries

Meals/recipes for the week

• Birthday breakfast: circus shaped buckwheat waffles with fresh Strawberries
• Birthday dinner: spaghetti with homemade Tomato sauce and meatballs
• Lemon Broccoli soup (with Spinach)
• Butter-braised Radishes with Sorrel
• Kale, Onion and cheddar frittata

Here's to me (and my family) being able to get this all cooked, photographed and posted before we head out later this week!  Cheers!
This week's title is inspired by the song of the same name by Eric Clapton.
