Eat Your Flowers! (They’re Not Just for Slugs Anymore)
Did you know that many flowers are edible? Of course you knew that. But they are also nutritious. And tasty.
Even though we don’t “do” bread around here, we sure love that Wise Bread blog. They always have excellent articles ranging from consumer concerns to saving money to nifty foods. Though we don’t recommend deep-fried food, baked or grilled zucchini flowers would be delicious. Check it out!
