In Mint Condition on Muffin Tin Monday

It's Muffin Tin Monday again!  And there is more from the garden today.  Tomatoes and cucumbers (from the garden), a grilled cheese on homemade white bread, beets (from our garden), and a mint chocolate chip cookie. 
Pierce ate every single last bite.  The twins ate all but the cucumbers and beets.  So not bad, overall. You can find the yummy (and easy) mint chocolate chip cookie recipe from Karen over on This Old House 2.

  1. I love beets, they are like candy to me :-) Have you tried roasting them with a little salt and olive oil? My kids will typically eat them that way, but not pickled or just raw in salads.

  3. Everything looks delish, sans the tomato. I'll bet the cookies were good too. I would trust a recipe from Karen any day of the week!

  4. I would eat it all too (except for the beets). Don't feed me beets, Lisa. Ok?

  8. Tomatoes from the garden are so good! There never seems to be much point to eating store bought ones.

  19. Whoa...that green cookie! I'd eat it, but I think my kids would think twice. I made green pancakes for St.Patrick's Day, and they wouldn't eat them because they were green!

  30. I am not so sure about the green cookie....would turn me off. But glad to hear everyone ate well. You are giving all your boys such good eating habits from the beginning. So many people don't start that young and I think they should.
