Tonight we had spinach quiche for dinner. Around 1:00, I realized that I didn't have enough spinach in my freezer. Then I remembered I had an abundant supply growing in my yard.
Check out my gorgeous organic spinach! They were so happy under the plastic row covers. Some leaves were as big as my hands! 1.5 lbs harvested and fit into a gallon ziploc bag.
Quick tip: if you decide to grow any sort of leaf vegetable-like lettuce, spinach, chard - invest in a salad spinner. Trust me. It spins the water off the leaves and saves you soggy leaves.

Your spinach is indeed beautiful! 1.5 lbs - wonderful!
Yum! BTW I posted my garden progress on my blog today! I am excited to get my garden planted this week.
Shannan, is that the Tyee spinach? You harvest looks wonderful! I started my outside spinach late so I'm a ways from harvesting. What a coinkidink, I also made a quiche. I used swiss chard instead and added smoked salmon. I posted the recipe on my blog if you're interested. Happy Harvest!!!
