In order to say THANK YOU to my folks who seriously invested themselves in prettying up our yard, I decided to make a homemade strawberry rhubarb pie. I have rhubarb in my garden , but this is only it's second year, and from what I understand it needs to mature for 3 years. I agreed because it wasn't getting red. After a quick trip to Al's Garden Center, I found out that I have green rhubarb that is mature enough to use. I guess if I had kept those little white stick things that come with the plants I would have known this information.
Anywho, I cut some rhubarb, picked some strawberries and whipped up
this pie and
this crust (if you use this recipe, make sure you double it, this is only enough for the bottom crust) this morning. Delish!
All of my rhubarb leaves are this big! It's insane!
1 of 2 rhubarb plants
My strawberry bed! Once I finally killed all the slugs that attacked it this year, it really grew!!!
Finished product!
