From garden to table

Fresh garden greens (Forellenschulss, Lollo Rossa, Black seeded simpson, and cilantro), and dragon tongue beans.




Salad, stir fried beans with a little bit of teryiaki sauce (the kids were upset that most of the purple color disappeared during cooking!), and sauteed red cabbage and onions. A complete backyard garden meal. (sorry - forgot to take a before picture of the red cabbage before chopping it up!)

  2. Oh I love those beans...I would never be able to cook them - they are too pretty. How'd they taste?

  3. They were very tasty! A little bit sweet - they tasted good raw, too.

  4. I've been wanting to try some heirlooms- some day that is all I really want to grow :). You sure have some wonderful harvests!
