We picked the first bunch of chioggia beets, an Italian heirloom, also known as bulls-eye. Very mild and sweet.
Had them thinly sliced on a bed of Forellenschuss lettuce, along with the beet tops. Added green onion and a little basil, from the garden.
Topped with EVO, garlic, and feta.
Unbeatable flavor.
This is what gardening is about. Real food, produced by us, harvested by us, prepared by us, and free from any personally introduced contaminants.

Do those personally introduced contaminanats include drool? ;-)
Hi Charlie,
Glad to hear of your success! Sounds like a great lunch too. So far all our garden has produced are blossoms, plenty of ants, and a couple of cayenne peppers. Hope we will have more produce in a couple of weeks. Those durned goats really put us behind with the garden, having to replant so many times and all. Oh, and wyatt's pizza didn't grow either, (of course!). Thankfully he seems to have forgot about it. Well, time to face the day, gotta get things in order for mom's b-day supper tonight.
Congrats on your garden, Rae
Not if it is mine! ;-)
Charlie
Too bad about the pizza...that would be a winner for sure.
