We just harvested the lettuce from our little cold frame
garden at Primaria Quilcacancha. We’re
going to have a big harvest party with the parents later in September, but the
lettuces weren’t going to wait that long.
I wanted to share our first pickings.
We made two salads to mixed results. One was with Peruvian flavors and was just
lettuce with tomato, avocado, salt, and lime and most of the kids ate that
up. The other was with Asian flavors and
I thought the kids would go for the clementine slices, crushed peanuts, and soy
sauce based dressing, but I made the mistake of adding garlic and ginger and it
was a bit much for them. Anyway, they
were helpful, it was fun, and the kids ate some greens. It was a success considering some had never
seen a salad before.
