    Southern Style Stir Fry is flexible and so versatile as you can add whatever you'd like! Southern Style Stir Fry in white bowl

    This week, I'm challenging myself to create a seasonal veggie recipe based on ingredients from my CSA basket. This fusion recipe is a stir fry that mixes Asian flavors with seasonal southern veggies, and it's delicious!

    What I love about a stir fry is that you can really mix and match your veggies. I'll provide alternate vegetables, so you can use what's seasonal in your area.

    Super Veggie of the Week: Mushrooms

    This recipe was inspired by the lion's mane mushrooms that came in our CSA basket. My friend Jonathan Tescher of Sparta Imperial Mushrooms grew these beauties for us. Aren't they lovely?

    Lion's Mane Mushrooms
    It looks like cauliflower at first glance, doesn't it? But these are actually lion's mane mushrooms. YUM!

    Mushrooms give your food a lovely earthy flavor, but they've also got a surprisingly robust nutritional profile. Mushrooms are one of the only non-fortified plant-based sources of vitamin D. If you can't find lion's mane mushrooms near you, I'd recommend shiitake mushrooms as a substitute. Shiitake mushrooms, in particular, are a nutritional powerhouse. They're one of the more budget-friendly superfoods, and they support your immune system and your kidneys.
