This week's recipe is a baked egg dish and using fresh basil in it is the only way to go. There's an abundance of basil this season, and many of you have it growing in your gardens and on your porches. In fact, there is some at the Community Garden next to Vineland Elementary. If you're hesitant to harvest items from the community garden, let this video be your guide for gathering some basil. The key to getting basil to continue to produce is by harvesting it! The video shows you where to make your cuts, and it really is true that basil likes to be regularly harvested because the plant can put its effort into producing more foliage instead of putting effort into producing seed.
