Grilled Napa Cabbage with Peanut Sauce

My share also included the most amazing snap peas, lettuce, zucchinis, russian kale, swiss chard, and purple basil. The greens don't last long around here as a veggie lover. I used the kale and chard to make green smoothies and kale chips. The snap peas were sweet, crunchy, and so incredibly fresh. I used the head lettuce to make beautiful salads with avocados, cucumbers, and olives with fresh lemon dressing. I added the zucchinis to my Warm Detox Soup and also made zucchini noodles with pesto sauce. I just picked up a whole bunch of farm fresh veggies and excited to try some new recipes.
