Tonight's dinner turned out very good too, partly due to my adventures in the garden today. I noticed a lone potato plant popping up in my no-dig garden, and thought I'd better check and see if there were any other results of my previous crop which I thought had failed because the plants had died off without flowering. To my delight, when I started digging, I found a lot of nice potatoes of all sizes - enough for several meals.

So we had some of those whole tonight with sour cream and sweet chilli sauce, along with veal topped with bacon and some fancy lettuce from the garden with some of John's salad dressing of balsamic vinegar, extra virgin olive oil, grain mustard and honey. All the different flavours mixed together in a lovely combination on the plate.

By the way Jon, the swiss chard you linked to is often sold as spinach here in the supermarkets. Otherwise it tends to be known as silverbeet. I love the stuff, and I usually have some growing in the garden so I can pick off a few leaves and eat it within minutes of it being picked. I especially like it with cheese and tomato.
