Monday Harvests 5/17/10

On 5/13 we harvested 2.25 oz of arugula and 2.25 oz of sorrel became a pesto with pecans and garlic. We also had 4.25 oz of oak leaf lettuce, tatsoi, and baby kale greens. Last night I picked 3 oz. of tatsoi to go into a curry.
Total for the week 9.5 oz. With these harvests from the cold frame and other lettuce on the way I think I'm done buying lettuce at the store until the fall. Hooray!

You can see what other gardeners have harvested at Daphne's Dandelions.

Isn't it nice when you get into lettuce heaven? I was beginning to think it would never happen, but a few warm days and here it comes.

Those are some nice looking greens! What else do you do with your sorrel? I've got some and don't really know how to use it other than on salads. I never thought of pesto.

Whoohoo for no more store lettuce. I'm pretty happy about that too. I'll only have to fill in during the summer once the spring lettuce is gone (transitioning gardens is leaving certain thing by the wayside, including successions of lettuce.).

Your greens look excellent!

The sorrel pesto sounds great, will have to try that ! Congrats on the lettuce, that's one less thing to buy at the store. Can't wait to try my arugulas. I've got a wild and Mediterranean variety.
