The green of early spring is the greenest, most vivid, most emerald green there is, isn't it?
Unfortunately, early spring is not a great time in the vegetable garden. None of the fun, showstopper crops like tomatoes or eggplants are producing. We don't even have peas or broadbeans yet, although they are growing like crazy.
What we do have is lots of greens, which makes for great salads and stir fries (and looks of despair from some of my children who think I am trying to poison them, green being their least favourite colour in the food world).
Yesterday's harvest for a chicken stir fry, shown above, was fenugreek greens, silverbeet, garlic scapes, green onions and coriander. Yum!
