A New Year ! A Fresh start ! What herb could be more refreshing than Mint? Crisp, spicy, possibly the easiest herb to grow -in fact we have known people to grow it in just a glass of water on the shelf above the kitchen sink - a handy place to have mint as well... uses in the kitchen abound. See the Herb of the Month page to find other places, where Mint may be put to good use.If your thoughts are turning toward Spring, there is no better accompaniment to Spring peas, or lamb. If you have grown Mint before, consider some of the new scented varieties, chocolate, apple, orange - however you use it it's so easy to grow and so prolific, there no reason not to have some.

Tabbouli ! Sounds like an exclamation of joy, doesn't it? Or an exotic greeting ? Not nearly as exotic as it sounds, with a name like that and an ingredient such as 'bulghur'. Some consider it the middle eastern equivalent of slaw. Try some with that frozen leftover Christmas ham, or Thanksgiving turkey. Light, refreshing, healthy, you might even add some garbanzo beans (chickpeas) and serve it as an exotic version of that good luck for the New Year dish of 'Hoppin' John'. Keep the recipe around for later in the summer when days are hot, and a light, cool, healthy and refreshing dish is just what the doctor ordered!
