Shared by a CSA member.  A few notes from CSA member: I didn’t follow the amounts listed in the recipe and I made substitutions based on the odds ‘n ends I had left over from the past couple weeks, but the idea is still the same.  I used parsnips instead of carrots, I added quite a bit of kolrabi, etc, but it really turned out great.  The beets turned everything pink, but that doesn’t hurt the taste at all!
