Pictures from our Garden (& recipe suggestions)
For the past few years, summer was associated with tending our vegetable garden in Maryland.
Here is my wife picking cucumbers that will go, directly into our table salad — along with homegrown tomatoes that we also use to create our own pasta sauce.
Another big hit is zucchini—-here’s a picture of our first garden-grown zucchini, from seed :)
Sliced thinly and put under the broiler with some good Parmesan on top, or Yes, that's how I ended up preparing it sautéed and with a sharp, nutty Wisconsin cheese...it’s simple delicious!
Here’s a picture of some healthy greens picked from our garden and presented in my Egyptian coffee table and carpet.
If you’re in the mood for quiche, maybe some squash?
Also, I’ve made an excellent squash soup in the past from our harvest.
If you’re more ambitious & capable in the kitchen (such as my mother-in-law) maybe you can attempt zucchini bread?
And, what better way to cool off in the summer than juicy, chilled watermelon?
Admittedly, it’s a lot of work, keeping up a garden & a good idea to put up a fence to keep our creatures —- like deer or rabbits —- that might destroy it.
Thank you, for joining me on this virtual tour and I hope you’re eating healthy, natural foods 🙏🏼✨
