Arugula Pesto
A twist on the classic basil pesto, this spicy condiment is a great addition to sandwiches, pastas, or soups. Mature arugula will contribute more pungency than baby greens, so bunched arugula is your best bet if you’re looking for an assertive flavor. If you happen to have an abundance of arugula, make a double or triple batch of this pesto and freeze it for up to 3 months. If you plan to use the pesto in small amounts, freeze the sauce in ice cube trays and then store the frozen cubes in a zipper bag.
Jalapeno Arugula Aioli
Customers at our Farm Stand’s Organic Kitchen in Carmel Valley, CA, crave this creamy green sauce that, despite its spicy name, has just a slight bite. Arugula gives the aioli its peppery freshness, and baby spinach provides the delicate green color. While some jalapeño peppers are fairly mild, others are quite hot. If the jalapeños are too hot for your taste, use less and leave out the ribs and seeds.

Power Waffle with Sun-dried Tomatoes, Basil and Ricotta
Didn’t know that savory waffles were even a thing? One bite, and you’ll be hooked for life! They may even win you over from the traditional maple syrup-topped buttermilk kind.
Our partner Ashley at Edible Perspective was inspired to create this crunchy, fluffy, utterly delicious (and gluten free) waffle by our tender Organic Power Greens. So while the waffle is literally exploding with greens, they don’t overpower its flavor or texture.
The base of the waffle uses a simple combination of quinoa flour, sweet rice flour and almond meal. The quinoa gives a bit of earthy flavor and — being just partially ground — adds a slight crunch. (See Notes below.)
As if it wasn’t enough to infuse the waffle, she added the Power greens to butter, too, along with some fresh basil. Yes, that’s right: green butter! With a pinch of salt and pepper, it’s the perfect topping for a savory waffle — though you really don’t need any topping at all.
Even if you’re not going gluten-free, you’re going to love this waffle!
