“You don’t have to cook fancy or complicated masterpieces, just good food from fresh ingredients.” -Julia Child

Rich with comforting flavors yet bright with the first stirrings of spring, this week’s pasta night-inspired box is made for gathering around the table. Think: locally crafted Lagana Foods pasta tossed with Skagit River Ranch Italian sausage and Nonna Pat’s classic Sunday Gravy, simmered simply with tomatoes, basil, and garlic. Balance those hearty notes with the beautiful bitterness of mixed radicchio, the mellow sweetness of leeks and tender Romanesco, and the gentle punch of fresh green garlic. There’s fresh-baked Struan bread for toasting and sopping up every last spoonful of sauce, plus farm-fresh eggs and a touch of brightness from winter citrus and crisp farm apples. Set the table and enjoy a little Italian comfort—Bella Luna style.

Here are some recipe ideas for the week:

Italian Sausage & Winter Squash Pasta Bake

Hearty, cozy, and perfect for gathering around the table. This one makes excellent leftovers.

Winter Squash, Leek & Green Garlic Frittata

A beautiful way to use the farm eggs—perfect for brunch, lunch, or a light supper with salad.

Roasted Romanesco with Green Garlic & Citrus

A simple way to let this beautiful vegetable shine. If you’ve never cooked romanesco before, treat it like cauliflower—but expect a slightly sweeter, nuttier flavor.

Radicchio, Citrus & Warm Squash Salad with Green Garlic Salad Dressing

This one softens radicchio’s edge by pairing it with sweet roasted squash and juicy citrus. It feels winter-to-spring transitional—which is exactly where we are.

Green Garlic Salad Dressing

Flavor-packed ground mustard, vinegar and green garlic stalks mix beautifully in this easy vinaigrette.

Roasted Onion Butter

This deeply-caramelized, deeply-flavorful butter from The Original Dish will be a new standby in your kitchen; try tossing it with roasted winter squash, Romanesco, or even with pasta!
