Harvest

 

I have decided to up the ante with my blogging skills...adding photos to the text to give some more allure to new and old readers alike.  It has taken me most of the afternoon to get the picture, adjust/photoshop the picture, post the picture....you get the idea.  I have run the gammet of excitement, frustration and finally relief that it finally worked!  Let's hope that it will keep getting easier and easier, faster and faster... :)

So the above picture is a happy harvest from my garden...tomatoes, tomatillos and peppers--and if I do say do myself, the BEST tomatoes I have ever had!!  Here is what I did with them...

Marinated Vegetable Salad

(feel free to adjust the quantities and type of veg used here-this is a great one to use up the extra's...)

1 cup cherry tomatoes halved

1 cup cucumber chopped

1 red or yellow pepper chopped

1/2 cup feta cheese crumbled

1/4 cup Italian dressing (or balsamic--whatever you like)

Mix all together and let sit for at least  1/2 hour (the longer the better, and at room temp if you can...) stir occasionally.
