Using the Harvest

 What are you getting from your garden?  We have harvested cabbage, tomatoes, potatoes, carrots, onions,sunflowers, kale, pumpkins, apples and plums this fall.  With this harvest there are a number of things I make.


*


Homemade spaghetti sauce-tomatoes, garlic, onions, basil, thyme, sage, oregano, majarom, cayenne, savory from the garden


Homemade salsa-tomatoes, onions, cayenne from the garden


Cream of carrot soup


Tomato soup


Kale soup


Meatball stew-using carrots, potatoes, onions and beans from the garden


Scalloped hotdish-carrots, onions, potatoes


Speedy boiled dinner-cabbage, potatoes and carrots


Cabbage rolls-cabbage, tomatoes


Runzas-Ask for the recipe on this one.  These are delicious,  cabbage and onions


French Fries


Onion Rings-love these


Coleslaw


Applesauce, apple pie, baked apples, fresh plums, pumpkin pie, pumpkin bread, pumpkin pancakes


These are just a few ideas.  What do you make with your fresh harvest?


You know, even with stretching our grocery money, I'm still spending about $100 a week on groceries.  There are six of us, and I can't think of how to save any more than I am.  Any suggestions?
