kale
mustard greens
3 cucumbers
squash-o-rama: 1 yellow, 1 zucchini, 3 "Mexican"
4 large tomatoes
a gazillion cherry tomatoes
about 12 cherry peppers
1 bell pepper
2 small eggplants
1 ear sweet corn
1 large bunch purple basil
1 substantial watermelon
Oh, yes! Now I have to tell you all the things we made out of it! First off, the tomatoes were really really super--and I don't even like tomatoes that much. But holy cow, it's like a completely different vegetable from what you get in the supermarket, even here in SoCal where many things from the supermarket--for example, avocadoes--taste absolutely amazing.

ground chipotle pepper, to taste
fresh corn

As for the eggplants, pepper, and mexisquashes, we broiled them just like this, with nothing but olive oil, salt, and garlic. It's amazing how broiling and roasting just concentrate the inherent amazingness of good produce.
Broiled Veggies
All the component parts of this post were then combined with beans and fresh avocado into a slightly unusual, but tasty, burrito-type thing. We also sauteed the kale and ate it on the side, but you all know what that looks like. :)
