August 17, 2016 – Not that hungry this evening, wasn’t feeling well today, definitely didn’t want anything heavy and meat didn’t appeal.
So I went out to the garden to see what I could find, and came back with a pretty good haul that made a great base for a vegetarian dinner this evening.
Fresh parsley, basil, green beans, four kinds of lettuces, two kinds of kale, Swiss Chard, and a pair of lemon cucumbers. All of this for a few moments of picking.
From the fridge, a bunch of asparagus, a fennel bulb, a chunk of kohlrabi, the kernels from a cob of corn, a handful of sugar peas, and a handful of radishes.
And from upstairs on the deck, a handful of fresh picked cherry tomatoes.
A fresh vinaigrette and a loaf of fresh bread and I see a fabulous and tummy friendly dinner in our immediate future, containing in excess of 16 different herbs and vegetables.
I absolutely LOVE having a place to grow veggies, and though there are still some things I’m not having success with, I’m figuring out what does grow well here and capitalizing on it.
Dinner time.
