Garden's Last Day: Dec 17, 2011

It was cold, really cold, but it couldn't be put off any longer.  The last of the 2011 harvest consisted of 21 leeks, 3 big turnips, 4 small kohlrabi, and about 3-4 servings of broccoli. Also, enough turnip greens from the late planting, and a little kale that will be nice in a soup or dal. We still have some parsnips, potatoes, small beets and turnips that are really good roasted all together.  I roasted some last week with a berbere spice mixture (Ethiopean) I made a while ago and promptly forgot what was in it. It is like a sweet curry.  Mixing the roasted root vegetables with cooked red quinoa was a simple, but delicious dinner, with leftovers for lunch.
