Garden rewards

In Arizona, we are currently enjoying the rewards of the "spring garden." Planted mid-February to mid-March, we are now enjoying tomatoes, cucumbers, green beans, peppers, carrots, new onions, and summer squash.

For pico de gallo, I still have to buy the cilantro (it fades quickly in the heat),

but I'm always very happy when I can prepare a dish with only produce picked from the backyard moments ago.

I may feel rewarded, but my taste buds are extra happy. Fresh picked is always better!
