If you have never shaved jalapeños over food I HIGHLY suggest it. My garden is on 🔥right now 😏. My awesome aunt brought over @bagelsaurus13 who happens to make sandwiches with @bostonsmokedfish hot smoked salmon.

I CRUSHED this sandwich and suggest this combo. You won’t be disappointed!!!

Quick go to dinner on the @surlatable plates. I had left over green zebras and they were OUTSTANDING on these quick tacos. Chicken breasts diced and tossed into a pan with @bonodisiciliausa olive oil, brown them and then add 1 taco seasoning pouch of your choice, a little water, and you are good to go.

Be careful on the water amount, it’s easier to put on then take away. I used about a 1/2 cup (4 chicken breasts).

Growing these from seed has been an amazing experience and my first time. They are tangy and just plain different! Highly suggest growing them. I just added a little salt, Italian seasoning, and @bonodisiciliausa EVOO.

SO GOOD

Left over taco meat and @peteandgerrys why not? The homemade pickled jalapeños were awesome and I added @kikkomanusa to them during the pickling process. They were awesome and I highly suggest doing it.

This is why you pick your ripe tomato’s. Once a tomato shows its first blush of pink, red, orange, etc. it has reached the “breaker stage” and can usually finish ripening off the plant with very little difference in flavor.

Keep it on the counter at room temperature, out of direct sunlight and away from our friends.

Cabbage soup from the garden really was satisfying in so many ways. For those that know, taking care of cabbage takes time. For the recipe:

Cabbage Soup
Makes about 6 servings · Ready in 40 minutes - Feel free to double or triple this. As you can see, I doubled it.

Ingredients

* ½ large cabbage, chopped
* 3 carrots, sliced
* 1 large onion, diced
* 3 celery stalks, sliced
* 2 tablespoons tomato paste
* 6 cups chicken stock
* 2 tablespoons olive oil
* Salt and black pepper, to taste
* Optional: 2 minced garlic cloves - but I always put them in.

Directions

1. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion, carrots, and celery. Cook for 7–8 minutes, stirring occasionally.
2. Add garlic, if using, and cook for 30 seconds. Stir in tomato paste and cook for 2 minutes.
3. Add cabbage, chicken stock, and optional bay leaf. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a gentle simmer.
4. Simmer partially covered for 20–25 minutes, until the cabbage and carrots are tender.
5. Remove the bay leaf and season with salt and pepper. Add a little more stock or water if you prefer a thinner soup.

This ketchup and mayo combo was PERFECT on these hard boiled eggs. It’s October and the garden is STILL producing. The cubanelle pickled peppers are continuing to grow as well.
