Grow your own and then make these

Whole wheat pizza crust topped with sauce and veggies



Roasted garlic mashed potatoes



What do these yummie foods have in common? Herbs!
Grow your own. It's easy and its fun. Well, I think its fun and best
of all its way cheaper than buying fresh herbs and tastes better
than dried on the grocery store shelf herbs.

Heres Rosemary



Oregano

for chopping.




Basil





You can grow herbs in the house on a windowsill, which I think is
the best way. Less bug problems. Basil is pretty easy to grow outside if
you do it in the spring into summer. By autumn the weather is too cold for
them. Herbs can be planted year round if you keep them in the house. Just
be mindfull of cold air around your windows. You may have to take them
away during the night and replace them in the morning.
