The garden and a new recipe!

John making the orzo salad.

Our funny cucumber that grew around a brick.

The salad, almost done, along side our vegetable bounty that didn't make it into the salad.

Yesterday we tried a new recipe using Orzo pasta.  It's just a basic salad, with lots of cucumbers, tomatoes, lettuce, scallions, and of course, orzo, in it. We put in our fresh picked bell pepper, too!  Topped it with fresh made balsamic vinaigrette.  We also made a squash/onion/tomato stir-fry.  The protein of the dinner was Italian Sausage, barbequed.  Yum!  This is a big bowl, by the way.  We ate well over half of the salad, it was that good!
