My 8x4 raised bed is full of spinach and mixed greens. I sauteed garlic in olive oil, added spinach leaves and cooked just until they were tender - mmm. Today I will gather greens and start having a salad with every meal. Once the weather gets hot, the plants will bolt and go to seed quickly. BTW - the bed is 18" high, and it has kept the rabbits at bay. Makes me feel like Mrs. McGregor, but they have plenty of weeds to munch on.

Oh Jacquie, I envy your nice fresh vegetables and fresh salads that will soon be on your plate.
I make a creamy chicken soup with a dab of mustard for tang (original recipe used white wine)and stir in thin shreds of greens. Sells for a fortune in local restaurant... Also add thin slices to stir fry instead of bok choy.
