I wanted to share with you a fantastic and affordable way to stock your home with healthy and delicious produce.
For the past 8 months I’ve been ordering from Bountiful Baskets, a “non-profit food co-op for families that want to have more fresh produce for less money.” You order a basket on Monday and pick it up on Saturday morning. Each basket consists of half fruit and half veggies, but other than that you never know what you are going to get. We love it! The picture above is half a basket from last week (my sister and I decided to share). We’ve been extremely happy with the quality of the produce and it’s been so fun to plan recipes around the items we get and try things I would never have purchased on my own. This past week my husband, the mushroom hater, even devoured a big bowl of mushroom soup!
You can find out more about Bountiful Baskets and see if there is a location in your area on their website HERE.
Hurry, go order a basket today, and if there happen to be mushrooms in it you definitely have to try this soup. 🙂
