There's no going back. Must forever and always, from this day forward have a garden! This was our first, and while the cucumbers, strawberries, & raspberries quickly died, much is thriving! This week was our first harvest: jalapenos and zucchini -and we are pretty proud of these babies we've raised up from seeds. Amazing! The kids love the picking, washing, cooking, and eating of them too! This has also sparked growing independence from cookbooks, using them for inspiration while mostly venturing out on our own with what we've got. It's been fun, always something new and different!
This weeks dinner -homemade whole wheat tortillas (made by Chad), grilled zucchini & roasted jalapenos topped w/ goat cheese (cheddar for the kids) & chipotle salsa
Chad and I really enjoy cooking together, and with the kids (sometimes!)...
CHEERS to eating pretty, healthy food!

YUM! that look delish!
Who knew cucumbers were so hard to grow?!? I must have planted 20 and only 2 survived. If they ever get any cucumbers I'll let you know! I have 2 strawberry plants as well, we got one small strawberry from one and now neither of them have any blossoms?
That sounds so good. How do you make tortillas, send me the recipe if you can.
Looks so yummy Deann! Thats awsome that Chad made homemade tortillas! Were they hard to make?
amen! amen! amen!
what a lovely thing a garden is!
I hope that in the future I can get the motivation to start my own garden! There is something so great about going into your yard for dinner. Love it!
That looks delicious! I'm impressed! We haven't harvested much yet, only tomatoes--but they are so good.
Yummers! Dee, I love that you have a garden and love to cook with your hubs.
