November Foods

Back in the Kitchen again, after living outside for the summer.

Topping the food list this month is the last of the garden harvest:

• Pumpkins
• winter squash
• sweet potatoes
• Irish potatoes
• winter greens: collards, kale, mustard greens and lettuce
• onions

All these foods will provide much needed nutrients for our busy bodies.
These foods will keep over the winter months.
The pumpkins, squash, onions and potatoes are kept cool and dry out in the garden shed all winter.
The greens will keep out in the garden until January, here in our zone 6.

You've heard an apple a day will keep the doctor a way?  Try adding these colorful green & orange foods a day to keep the doctor away!


Back in the kitchen, oven on, baking the winter squash and steaming the greens.
