tomatoes - whatever you do, don't put tomatoes in the fridge!
(store at room temperature, ideally in a single layer, out of the sun.)

(store in the fridge in a plastic bag)
carrots – you know the drill. Roast them, sauté them, juice them, cut them into sticks and dip into something tasty.
(Remove the carrot tops (they leach moisture from the roots) before storing them both in plastic bags in the fridge)
basil– oh boy! there are so many awesome things that can be done with a bit of basil. Pesto, pasta dishes, vinaigrette, or simply enjoy with your fresh tomatoes!
(store on the counter or in the fridge, in a glass with a bit of water in the bottom)
cilantro– people either love it or hate it. We like it a lot. If you don't intend to eat it up this week, then chop up and freeze for later.
(store on the counter or in the fridge, in a glass with a bit of water in the bottom)
kale – show your kale some love, give it a little massage to make it more tender. Did you know it freezes really well? Use later in smoothies!

beets – trim off the tops and boil until tender. Remove the skins and drizzle with some evoo!
