I had to trim those greens in the hydroponics, and got a large amount of them, and it almost looks like I didn't cut any! I made some Indian food - a one dish meal, based on a dal and rice dish, cooked together, but I used some whole oats, instead of the rice. I cooked those together, with some sambar masala and some turmeric, in the Instant Pot, on low pressure, to keep the oats from "exploding". While cooking that, I cooked an onion in some ghee, and several minced cloves of garlic, plus some tomato paste, cooked a couple of minutes,then added some sliced mushrooms, and cooked several minutes, on medium high. Then I added the chopped greens - about 4 quarts - then cooked them down, about 2 minutes. Then I stirred it into the dal, along with a generous amount of chopped cilantro, then simmered it a couple minutes longer.

Everyone's meal sounds super delish this morning.

I had Curried Mussels, Sweet Potato, and Leeks. Those mussels were super juicy and so tender!

Have enough for 2 more meals to freeze, which I will do today. Last night just separated the mussels from their shells. I store them separately and add them only after all else is heated, just to heat thru.
