Serving Rainbows For Supper



Roast (locally raised) pastured chicken with gravy, our garden Chantenay carrots from the "cellar", purple potatoes once again from the "cellar" (courtesy of our "Blue" potatoes cooked and mashed with the skins on), and peas (sadly store-bought as we've eaten our garden pea freezer stash).


Served with bright red raspberry cordial (homemade) I'd say we made a colourful show of the meal!

  4. Purple potatoes! I've never heard of them, do they taste the same as the white ones?

  6. They grew really well, actually but potatoes grow well here though so I didn't notice any difference in them over any other varieties as far as growing goes... :)
