Don't forget dessert! How about yummy fruit salsa and baked cinnamon chips? It goes perfect with the Mexican Black Beans!
How about some fresh garden lettuce for that salad?
Isn't it beautiful? I love this time of year when the garden is growing! We've almost got it all planted now...and...we're harvesting lettuce, spinach, chard, radishes, turnips, and green onions (from the onions we left in the ground last year). And more to come!! :)
