Peas and Chard

For lunch today we harvested our first batch of peas as well as taking some of the larger leaves off the Swiss Chard plants.

A bowl full of pea pods, and a bowl full of Swiss Chard.

Once the peas were shelled, there were 3 cups of them ready to be steamed.

I kept eating fresh ones as we were shelling them.   The first planting of peas is done blooming and we picked roughly half of the pods on the plants.  The others need to get fatter, so another few days and we’ll pick the rest of the peas and replant that part of the bed with carrots and beets.
