Garden pizza & beaitiful garden harvests

I have been continually harvesting tomatoes, beans, and peppers. So I'm incorporating veggies in different ways. I have hot peppers in ramen, burritos, salsa, and even in spicy fried beans. Tomatoes are versatile because I eat them raw sliced as a side dish, in a sandwich, make salsa and spaghetti sauce as you have seen in past posts.

Canning yummy garden food & pictures of beautiful harvests

To all my garden lovers, I haven't been on in weeks because I've been busy doing work with my advocacy group, I went to a weekend worshop on advocacy through anti oppression framework; I got a job at a domestic violence center; and I've been taking care of my granny who is in the hospital for cellulitis. 

But anyway, I have many pictures of my garden harvests and I've been eating well thanks to the bounty of garden food.
