EARLY VEGETABLES

Early vegetables that we plant and which can survive the harsh cold of early spring are cabbage, broccoli, red cabbage, kale, lettuce, and although there are many others that one can plant these are the staples that we enjoy and stick to planting year after year.

The first of the broccoli and cabbage plants are ready for harvest which is made even more delightful by the fact that we planted most of them from seed in the midst of winter and watched them produce to full maturity.

The cabbage and broccoli we harvested yesterday was used to make stir-fry today.

I simply use garlic, onions, and peppers and saute them in a little oil in my non-stick skillet and throw on top of them some fresh ground ginger, the broccoli, and cabbage that I have shredded with a knife and let it simmer on low till the veggies are done but not over cooked.  (Even if you over cook this its still good)
