Ok I'm back on track with these! I really meant to spend only on fruit today because I still have some vegetables in the fridge but I couldn't resist picking up a few more things. And in truth, I am growing rather tired of kale. Unfortunately, my regular fruit people were not around today so I had to buy my apples from a pricier stand. The apples are bigger, but they were also $1.99 per pound. We will see how they taste. And the shiitakes were so beautiful that I had to snap up a bag when I walked by them. As for the beets, I justified their purchase by reasoning that the leaves were also edible...
what do you do with beet leaves?
ReplyDeleteoh i looked this up and it seems that i can just sautee them with some garlic and olive oil and then splash a bit of balsamic vinegar in. i'm going to try this out tonight.
ReplyDeletewhat do they taste like? What if they taste soapy or bitter? I'm just sayin'
