More garden...more delicious.

Garden dinners are delicious!  I have not been taking pictures of every garden dinner (that would be a lot of pictures), but here are some pictures from dinners (or dinners to be) of deliciousness past (or...er...to be)...

Here is a bean just up from the ground!  They are now ready to eat.  This is a plant that has yielded purple beans!  Super cool how the bean seed opens like a capsule.
Here were the early spinach squares.  Our first salad was before the end of May!

Here is beautiful salad with some swiss chard and spinach.  Now, of course, it is too hot for spinach, so this is from a while ago, but it was delicious!
  
And how I LOVE pak choy!  Look at those beauties
We cut the stems from the leaves, chopped up some onions... 
Fried up some bacon, removed (left in the grease), fried the onions with the stems...
Added the leaves and bacon, some seasoning... 
 and placed over rice - delish!

So far we've had  spinach, swiss chard, lettuce, peas, beats (salad with the greens and salad with the roots), our first cuke (!), beans are ready...we've had to fight so many pests (!) but I hope for a great 2nd half!
