Food on the Farm

As mentioned in a previous post, our food options on the farm consist of greens, cabbage, lots of cheese, and some citrus fruits. In wanting to keep with the local season, we don´t want to go out and buy a lot of vegetables that were shipped in from other locations, so we have lately had to be creative with what we have. This has resulted in one of our favorites: greens/cabbage pizza. So in case any of you want to try out this recipe in your own house, here it is:

whole wheat crust (yeast, flax seed, wheat flour)
boiled greens and cabbage
four types of sheep and goat cheese


Let the crust rise, and spread it out on your frying pan (cause that´s what we have). Put the greens mixture on top, and add the ricotta, pepper cheese, soft sheep cheese, and parmesan/romano type sheep cheese. Light your dangerous gas oven (or build a fire in your equally as dangerous outdoor oven- according to Adam´s finger) and cook until you think it is done.

It is actually quite tasty.



And I know you all are dying to see pictures of us milking sheep (it´s not a common thing here either- the guys at the local store make fun of Hector for milking sheep), so here they are:





A new WWOOFER arrived yesterday. She is from New York and goes to college in Wisconsin. We have been showing her around before we head out on Thursday. As we prepare to spend 100s of hours on Argentine busses to traverse the country, we will likely think back to the relaxing life at the farm.
