They are more expensive so I am careful about what I use them for. I make meatballs without egg, I blitz up a combination of bread ends and a few mushrooms that makes a breadcrumbly/mushroomy paste that holds meatballs together and also makes them lovely and moist. Your garden veg looks great. This summer it was cucumbers and zucchinis galore here.

I bought cage free eggs and let them sit in the refrigerator for three months and could not bear to use them.

One of my favorite ways to use feta cheese is on pizza (lightly). I use a pizza dough topped with garlic and olive oil, then add kalamata olives, spinach, and feta. OH so good. You can freeze it, too, though. <br /><br />Kris @ Attainable SustainableKris Bordessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12483941013928337737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9027191706980748713.post-826279771549342492011-06-27T11:48:36.060+10:002011-06-27T11:48:36.060+10:00Good looking haul from the garden.... see the girl...Good looking haul from the garden.... see the girls did listen to you they just needed some time, beans at this time of year? mine all died in the flooding and it would have been a waste to try more.Judi Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15610550246631429526noreply@blogger.com
