We determined that our pepper and tomato plants were being viciously attacked by relentless aphids and cutworms and have begun taking action against them!
So far, we've enjoyed the following from our garden:
- 7 cherry tomatoes
- 1 green onion
- lots of chives, basil, dill, parsley, rosemary, and thyme
- 3 sweet banana peppers
- 3 strawberries
- 2 Serrano peppers

What a great sounding menu you have for this week. My garden failed miserably, so it will be fresh produce from the local farmers markets it seems.
those lentil rice tacos look fantastic! I'll have to try them soon for my meatless meal.
Congrats on what you've gotten from your garden so far! Little is better then nothing for sure! Of course your weekly menu sounds great. I wanna know how the peanut soup turns out.. yum!!
How great that you can enjoy produce from your garden already! We're up North, so nothing is quite ready yet, but I can't wait!
What a yummy sounding menu! I always admire people who manage to plan out three meals a day. I am working my way up to it, very slowly!
The stuffed shells look wonderful! And I could do some with meat for hubby.
Our tomato plants are just starting to bud. :) Isn't it exciting to check out what is happening in your garden everyday?!
