Took the last bit of sliced bell peppers out of the freezer and added a sliced onion (now down to 2 left), to sautee with some sausage tonight!

My garden is done for the season, picked the last Brussels sprouts yesterday and will probably make them tomorrow. A local farm sent an email though, with the weird February thaw we are having, they had lettuce and baby bok choy available to order, so I ordered some of that and some sweet...

I made a large butternut squash to go with our roast today. Enough that we have leftovers!

Making a vegetable soup for the week today. I like to take it to work for lunch and add a can of sardines for protein. Lots of good hardy winter veggies…rutabaga, turnip, cabbage, onion, garlic, kale & winter squash I’m thinking!

The first time I grew celery, it took almost a month to sprout. I nearly gave up. But then I got 4 good seedlings from the 6 I planted, and had cut & come again celery all summer! Now I know to wait patiently, celery can take forever to sprout.

My husband, who wouldn’t touch cabbage when we got married, is now ASKING for what I refer to as cabbage skillet (cabbage, zucchini, carrots, onions, garlic, and ground meat). Today I used ground lamb and added chopped Swiss chard stalks. Besides the chopping, it cooks quickly and only takes one...

Picked some speckled leaf lettuce, added a sliced cucumber, and a store bought mango for salad. Had chicken vegetable soup with it.

Now that it’s been getting cooler, I’ve been making 2-3 pots of various veggie soups, and a bunch of salads and baked squash halves. It’s super easy meal prep, and I have breakfasts & lunches ready to go for the week! I love 1/2 squash for breakfast with some yogurt & berries on the side. 😊

I sautéed potatoes, onions, kale & sausage in a skillet with chicken broth as our main dish. Made a spinach salad with roasted beets, golden raisins, nuts, and goat cheese with an orange & olive oil dressing. Was a lovely and hearty meal!

Can you believe I’ve never made borsch? Lol! I have a ton of beets this year so it might be reason to attempt it.

I made a zucchini one-dish meal yesterday. Sautéed onion, garlic scape, cabbage, kale, and zucchini, combined with browned ground beef. Added some fresh herbs right before turning it off. All grown by me except the local farm beef.

I picked a tiny bunch of green beans and steamed them tonight! Also steamed some beets and added them to the salads.

I cheated. 😂 I sautéed (my) garlic scapes with (farmers market) zucchini, added (my) Swiss chard and some spices, along with homemade chicken broth. Topped with (grocery store) potatoes. Was dinner yesterday, and leftovers were breakfast today. I can’t wait til I start getting zucchini!

Green salad. Lettuce has been great!

Pretty soon I hope to say Green Beans! They are finally starting to flower! 😊

So far I’ve harvested lettuce & spinach for salads a bunch of times, and kale & chard for cooked greens. Bush beans are getting bigger, so hopefully they will flower soon! We had a rainy cold spell (in the 50s-60s which is REALLY cold for June) so everything just kind of went dormant….my...

My lettuce is still just a tiny sprout! Can’t wait, that looks great!

Yes, it does!

If you try it, let us know how it comes out! I just grabbed a few more pumpkins! People around me are leaving them at the road for “debris” pickup. I’ve been getting what I can for the chickens! (Some of them are winter squash like Red Kuri, Long Island Cheese, & Futsu, marketed as “trendy”...

That looks absolutely delicious!
