From Our Country Garden To Table Plus…One Dish #Recipe { #LMDConnector }

This is our 5th year growing a fruitful vegetable garden, each year it gets a wee bit bigger, which mean fewer trips to the grocery store and more savings in our pockets. Although it is a lot of work to grow, tend to, weed and love. Our whole family takes pride in the opportunity and all hands are in the dirt. Nothing beats walking out to the garden after a long day, picking dinner as a family, cooking it and enjoying it together. We use it as a learning and bonding experience filled with life lessons and nutrition.

Winter for us sometimes seems long, there is only so much canning one can do and in all honesty it is not high enjoyment on my list of to do’s. So when our vegetable stock is empty we turn to Green Giant Veggies to freshen our meals. Which are a delicious and easy alternative, 100% grown in Canada and rushed from the field to the freezer to lock in freshness, tasting like we just picked them.

Our vegetable garden is small compared to the 4 beautifully groomed acres which our home sits on. We are a country loving family and country living is the only living we see in our future. Our pond houses many Fish, 2 Otters, Great Blue Heron, 2 Mallard Ducks, A Turtle and many Frogs. A family of roaming bunnies who we steer away from our garden each Summer. Sunshine chores, mini projects, property up-keep, keeps us on our toes from Spring to Fall. Which means although we are picking dinner most days we still are crunched for time. I love serving one bowl meals in the summer, makes putting dinner on the table almost effortless. Plus when I think sunshine and summer yummy salads come to mind. Here is one that has caught my attention on http://lifemadedelicious.ca made with fresh in season vegetables and in 30 minutes you have met all the nutrition requirements for your family. Serve warm or cold both ways will leave you asking for more.

Green grass is here in Ontario, the sunshine is warming the land no time is better than now to put your green thumb to work. Start small or weave a few vegetable plants in your flower garden, it is satisfying.
