Indian Style Potato and Spinach



This is a really simple and tasty dish and makes a great side. Its cooked with spices and has a nice kick to it. We have recently planted our spring garden and have so far added - lettuce, spinach, Swiss chard, peas and beans its an exciting time of year with the glorious fresh green leaves and rain showers. 

We had a wonderful time planting the plants with the kids at my daughters elementary school on earth day. One little girl said that " I love this class" its truly wonderful getting kids involved in gardening especially with vegetables and fruits its a gift. Gardening and simply being in nature allows us to soak up its beauty and inspire us to look after it.
