Harvest 2012 |
Here is some of my harvest this summer-we are only a family of three so we have trouble eating all that just a few plants produce by ourselves! It's so rewarding and fun to grow vegetables in your own backyard- have you tried it? Grow them in a pot if you have to -on your back porch, but
do try it sometime! Start with just a few simple things like a tomato plant and a few herbs or if you have a lot of space you can't go wrong with zucchini or cucumbers. Those two really spread out so you've got to have room and basically you can't kill a zucchini plant - they seem to thrive no matter how you mistreat them! All you need is some decent soil and in my yard, I don't even really need to weed much around these plants, simply toss a few snails out of the way every week or so-super easy to tend! I seem to get through most summers without having to use any bug spray or anything, so there you go- your own organic garden!
I love to add some shredded zucchini in our scrambled eggs in the morning! Try it- they are delicious! It makes your eggs nice and moist plus you get some "green" into your mornings! I just throw the zucchini in the skillet first with a bit of olive oil, let them cook for just about 2 minutes, then toss in the eggs and cook until done!
