Peppers
As the weather begins to heat up, the peppers are coming in. In the photo below the green bean is the "Spicy Jane." I bought this plant because my best friend's name is Jane. I wanted to have "Jane" in my garden.
Below that is a Korean hot pepper.
At the bottom of the photo is the Shishito pepper.
Squash
I love running my squash though the vegetable spiralizer. Microware it to partially cook it and then top it with a ground meat sauce. Makes for a great no carbohydrate meal.
Apricots
After having the tree for four years, my apricot tree has finally given me a decent harvest! And I got to them before the birds did! I had ordered this tree bare root and didn't think it would survive this climate. I was wrong.
Processing the apricots in preparation for canning.
Only using apricots, sugar, and lemon juice for this recipe.
The final canned product. I ended up with a total of four cans. Shelf stable so that we can eat on this all year long.
