🍕 When @edisonfire goes to #Tulsa for work, you better believe he’s bringing home @andopizza for dinner! ❤️ We went with the Spring Street — a Manhattan-style pizza cooked to a slight char with EVOO, pecorino romano, housemade mozzarella and finished with fresh basil and Andolini’s pizza sauce (we also added red onions).
🥑 avocado toast but make it fancy with *radishes* and *goat cheese* (& creamy tomato soup)

😍 Can never go wrong with @cheevers_cafe! 3️⃣ Quinoa Avocado Salad 2️⃣ Juan’s Queso Chihuahua 1️⃣ Tequila Sunrise
🎉 2024 resolution = more homemade pizza ❤️
🍜 It’s a Yasai Ramen kind of day. 📍@gororamen @paseoartsdistrict
🍕It’s a Friday @hideawaypizza kind of night! 👀 Small thin crust with pesto, garlic & olive oil glaze, red onions, Kalamata olives and garlic
❤️💛 Pimento cheese & saltines — how can you go wrong?? 📍 @bararbolada
😍 LENTIL VEGETABLE SHEPHERD’S PIE 😍 What vegetarian Thanksgiving main was on your table this year?
🥔🥦 FAB lunch special available this week at @theloadedbowlokc — it was seriously delicious! 🧀 Loaded Baked Potato topped with @daiyafoods cheddar, dairy-free sour cream, green onions & tofu “bacon” bits (sooooo smoky & good) + a side of broccoli with cashew cheese sauce! ➡️ Pro tip: order a side of salsa + queso to go on top.
🤤🤤 Gimme the Quinn’s Burrata app from @thehallspizza & I’ll be good from now until forever. 💚💚 Burrata drizzled with truffle honey served with Calabrese olive oil and wood fired flatbread (comes with prosciutto as well, but obvs orders without!)
🥣💚 The only season (by a VERY close margin) better than Spooky Season is SOUP SEASON!!! 👏 I’ve been obsessed lately with @frontiersoups! They sell TONS of soup starter kits for all diets — vegetarian, vegan, gluten free, high-protein and more. 🫘🫛 My fave right now is the Texas Wrangler Black Bean Soup. I did make a few modifications from the recipe on the bag: - Swapped orange juice for lime juice - Added more seasoning, including chipotle powder, nutritional yeast, smoked paprika and oregano 🖤🖤 Been eating this soup all week and it’s so tasty. I like to top with cilantro, green onions and a bit extra lime.
🍕🥗 HOT TIP — @thehallspizza has one of the best lunch specials in OKC!! 🧀 You get an appetizer, salad and slice of pizza. HIGHLY recommend the Burrata appetizer — the creaminess is next level!
💚 There’s a reason I call this my Magic Pasta!!! Spinach Pesto Pasta that’s 100% toddler approved. Made with @eatbanza (chickpea pasta) cavatappi, the sauce includes 6 oz. spinach, 1 c. almonds, 1/4 c. nutritional yeast, a can of white beans, 1/2 c. olive oil, basil, lemon juice, white wine vinegar, 3 cloves garlic and salt + pepper to taste. 💥 TONS of plant-based protein + healthy fats — perfect for a 2-year-old who is in a “peanut butter only” phase. He fell for this pasta with ZERO coercion! 🤔 Note — pictured here is MY plate, which inclues sautéed Brussels sprouts and mozzarella pearls.
☀️☀️Sunday Brunch at the Russell Household! 🧀Cheddar Chive Biscuits 🍅Sundried Tomato, Spinach & Mozzarella Quiche with Puff Pastry Crust
BBQ Chickpea Pizzas — trust me, you need these in your life this weekend! 😋 Be sure to pick up two items from Trader Joe’s: Frozen Garlic Naan and Sriracha & Roasted Garlic BBQ Sauce. INGREDIENTS - Trader Joe’s Frozen Garlic Naan - Trader Joe’s Sriracha & Roasted Garlic BBQ Sauce - 8 oz. can of tomato sauce - Shredded sharp cheddar & mozzarella cheeses - Diced red onion - Diced yellow bell pepper - Chopped green onion - 2 cans of chickpeas, drained & rinsed - Garlic powder - Onion powder - Salt & pepper 1️⃣ Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil or a silicone baking mat. Place two frozen naans onto the mat. Cook for 20 minutes, flipping every 5 minutes. **Note — this is WAY longer than the package says to cook the naans. However, this method gets them crispy vs doughy, which is what you want in pizza! 2️⃣ Add the chickpeas to a bowl. Pour in a bit of BBQ sauce — just enough to coat the chickpeas without drowning them. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder and onion powder. Toss well to combine. 3️⃣ Pour some BBQ sauce in another bowl and gradually pour in the tomato sauce, tasting as you go. You likely will not use the whole can of tomato sauce — it just helps cut the sweetness in the BBQ sauce. Stir well to combine. 4️⃣ Add a layer of the sauce mixture to the naans. Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese, add the red onions and yellow bell peppers, then top with cheddar cheese. Finish with a layer of chickpeas, and sprinkle a bit more cheese over the chickpeas if desired. Cook until the cheese is melted, then finish in the broiler (be sure to watch the pizzas carefully so they don’t burn). 5️⃣ Top the pizzas with the chopped green onions, finish with a drizzle of BBQ sauce if desired and dig in!
Queen of the Night tomato! The pictures speak for itself! Good-looking, tasty, and meaty! Best eaten raw in a salad or with boiled salted eggs. #okcgardening #okcgarden #okcveggie #okcvegan #okcplants #oklahomagardening #okctomatoes #queenofthenighttomato #tomatoes #tomato #tomatolove
Classic Egg & Cress (except they were out of cress so these are broccoli sprouts) 💚
Fun fact: New Mexican food is probably my FAVORITE kind of food 💛❤️ As such, @elcoyotebarandcantina is one of my favorite restaurants in #OKC! 📸 Pictured: Stacked Enchilada Plate with blue corn tortillas, grilled onions, Anaheim peppers, shredded cheese, pickled onion, cilantro, radish, Christmas sauce, frybread + sides of Coyote beans and hominy
🍝 One of my favorite homemade dinners — classic Spaghetti Pomodoro (with broccoli, because balance). ❤️
Sure, @joeyspizzeria is known for their tasty pizza, but have you had their SALADS and APPS?? ❤️🥗💚 Recommendations: ✅ Cobb Salad — sautéed red & green peppers, mushrooms, red onion, garlic, avocado, tomatoes, egg, feta, croutons (I subbed tomatoes for carrots) ✅ Toasted Ravioli — ravioli stuffed with ricotta cheese then breaded & baked
Our most prolific hot peppers: habanero, jigsaw & sugar rush peach (pictured with sprigs of Thai basil and autumn joy sedum for Tap, the tortoise)! We love hot peppers for its heat and health benefits from a chemical called capsaicin. Capsaicin has anti-microbial properties that inhibit as much as 75% of bacteria growth. Hot peppers are full of beta carotene and antioxidants that support your immune system and can aid in fighting off colds and the flu. #gardening #gardeninginspiration #gardeningday #gardeningaddict #gardeningmakesmehappy #gardeningismytherapy #gardeningisfun #gardeningislife #gardeningisgoodforthesoul #gardeningformentalhealth #happygardening #happygardener #gardenerslife #gardenersofinstagram #gardenlove #gardenmoods #gardenstagram #urbangardening #vegetablegardening #okcgardening #okcgarden #okcveggie #okcplants #oklahomagardening #okcfoods #habanero #sugarrushpeach #jigsawpepper #hotpeppers #hotpepper
🧀🤤 You’re looking at THE TASTIEST restaurant grilled cheese thanks to the geniuses at @chimeratulsa. 💚🩷❤️ You gotta try the Monsieur Fromage ➡️ Sharp cheddar, local cheese curds, adzuki strips (that’s like bean bacon, folks) and chipotle crema grilled to perfection on toasted sourdough. I also added avocado. 🥑 SO GOOD
Vegetarian Pizza (yes that’s literally the name of it) at @andopizza is NEXT LEVEL! 🍕🫑🫒🧅🌿 Topped with mushrooms, sliced tomatoes (I ordered without), black olives, green bell peppers, red onions, basil, garlic infused extra virgin olive oil and red rock salt. We’re doing a little weekend getaway in #Tulsa to celebrate our son Oli’s SECOND birthday!! Hitting up my favorite @chimeratulsa tomorrow.
The perfect #MeatlessMonday recipe, courtesy of the Made In Oklahoma Coalition @miocoalition. Pasta with Sweet Corn & Mushrooms 🌽🌽 Cozy up with this pasta mixed with corn, garlic and sauteed mushrooms. Starting with Della Terra – a small-batch artisan pasta maker – is the key. Della Terra’s campanelle pasta holds onto to all the tasty ingredients in this bowl. Sauteing a variety of J-M Mushrooms, including shiitake and cremini, adds great flavor. This combination, along with the onions, corn and garlic, makes a dish you won’t want to stop eating. INGREDIENTS: - 1 package Della Terra @dellaterrapasta Campanelle Pasta - 2 teaspoons olive oil - 1 small bunch green onions, chopped using only whites - 4 ears corn, shucked and kernels sliced off - 2 cloves garlic, chopped finely - 12 ounce sliced mixed J-M Mushrooms @jmfarmsmushrooms: Shiitake, Cremini and Button Mushrooms - 4 tablespoons cold Hiland @hilanddairy Unsalted Butter, cut into pats - 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar - 2 1/2 tablespoons Cheatwood’s Pure Raw Honey - Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper - Scissortail Farms @scissortailfarms Basil Leaves, chopped for serving DIRECTIONS: 1. Fully cook the Della Terra pasta according to directions on box. Reserve in a large mixing bowl. 2. In a large heavy skillet, saute the onions, corn and garlic in the oil, allowing for even browning by slowly turning for about 4-5 minutes. Add this mixture to the pasta. 3. Saute the mushrooms in a little butter until golden brown. Return pasta mixture to the skillet, and heat adding the butter in small pats. Add cider vinegar and honey, stirring until combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste and garnish with chopped fresh basil. 📸by @miocoalition #edibleokc #lookatmeedibleokc #ediblecommunities #pasta #mio #madeinoklahoma #supportlocal #supportlocalokc #okcfood #okcfoodie #okcfoodies #okcveggie #eatokc #seeokc #visitokc #edmondok #normanok #oklahomacity #oklahoma #okc

Finally tried Manna - Cuisine of India (off NW Expressway & MacArthur) last night because it’s now conveniently located around the corner from our NEW HOUSE! ❤️🏡 Been moving/unpacking since Friday, so a big bowl of Paneer Tikka Masala + Garlic Naan was sorely needed. 🚨It was delicious, but word to the wise — was asked if I wanted it mild or medium, and went with medium. 🔥 Big mistake!! I genuinely like spicy food (a bottle of sriracha is usually within arm’s reach), but this was next level. I will FOR SURE order mild next time!

Vegan Noods at @artscouncilokc’s Festival of the Arts today via @bigbiangtheory! 🥡 Loved the spicy chili sauce. Starting a petition for them to make a version with more veg! 🥦🙏💚
Dined in at @thesauceesicilian the other day & absolutely loved it!! ❤️ 💚 Def recommend the Genovese — Red Sauce / Mozzarella / Mushroom / Marinated Artichoke / Caramelized Onion / Black Olive / Roasted Garlic A couple things to note: - They don’t have ranch - They don’t serve tonic because the owner is allergic to quinine - A bit under-staffed, but our server was absolutely amazing Will be back!
This hearty, greens-packed dish uses just FOUR ingredients from @traderjoes! 👏 Extra-Spinach Tortellini is one of our new favorites. ⬇️ Recipe below. INGREDIENTS - 1 package Trader Joe’s Spinach Tortellini - 1 jar Trader Joe’s Roasted Garlic Marinara Sauce - 6-ish ounces fresh spinach - Parmesan cheese - Black pepper & red pepper flakes, to taste STEPS 1) Pour the marinara sauce into a pot and heat on low for 10 minutes. 2) Add the tortellini and toss well. Cover with a lid and cook on medium heat for 5 minutes. Remove the lid every minute to quickly toss the tortellini, ensuring it doesn’t burn. 3) After 5 minutes, remove the lid and tear the spinach, adding gradually to the pot. Toss well until the spinach is fully wilted. 4) Serve and top with Parmesan, black pepper and red pepper flakes, if desired.

The secret to a killer quiche? 👀 Using puff pastry for the crust! ⬇️ Here’s my fave Broccoli Cheddar Quiche recipe we whipped up today to devour during the Bahrain Grand Prix. INGREDIENTS - 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed - 1 yellow onion, diced - 1.5 T. garlic, minced - 12 oz. frozen broccoli, chopped - 1 T. ground mustard - 2 t. smoked paprika - 1 T. nutritional yeast - Lots of black pepper - 6 eggs - 1/3 c. milk - 1 T. butter - 4 oz sharp cheddar, shredded 1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and microwave the broccoli according to package directions. Chop into small pieces when done cooking. 2. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and melt the butter. Add the onion and sauté until it’s translucent, about 4 minutes. 3. Add the garlic and spices. Sauté for 1 minute. 4. Add the broccoli and toss well. Sauté for 2-3 more minutes. Remove from heat. 5. Whisk the milk and eggs together. 6. Use a rolling pin or glass to flatten and lengthen the puff pastry. Grease a round pie dish and press the puff pastry into the dish, using your fingers to bring it up the sides. Tear off any excess dough. 7. Add the broccoli mixture to the crust and use a spoon or spatula to spread it evenly. Pour the egg mixture over the broccoli. Mix the eggs and broccoli together and spread evenly again. Top with the cheddar cheese. 8. Bake for 30 minutes. Suggest serving with your favorite hot sauce!
Stressed? The answer is Queso Fundido. 🧀🌶️ @fridasouthwest
🥦🧀 Obsessed with these Baked Broccoli Cheese Bites — perfect way to get a dose of veggies + protein, and they’re def toddler-approved! ⬇️ Recipe below. BAKED BROCCOLI BITES * 3 cups riced broccoli (about two small broccoli heads) * 4 eggs * 1/2 c. almond flour * 1 c. sharp cheddar cheese * 1 t. garlic powder * 1 t. onion powder * 1 t. mustard powder * 1 t. paprika * 1/2 t. cayenne * Salt & pepper, to taste 1) Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. If you bought pre-riced broccoli, then you’re a step ahead! Otherwise, chop the broccoli heads into smaller pieces and add them to a food processor. Pulse until the broccoli is in tiny pieces (or what looks like rice). 2) Whisk the eggs in a large bowl. Add the broccoli, almond flour, shredded cheese, and seasonings. Add a pinch of salt and season well with lots of freshly cracked black pepper. Use a spatula (or your hands) to combine the mixture until it starts to stick together. If it refuses to stick, add another egg or two. You need it to stick enough to be able to form bite-sized balls. 3) Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Form the broccoli mixture into bite-sized balls and place them on the baking sheet. Cook for 35-40 minutes or until the outsides are fully browned.
Oldie but a goodie — Cauliflower Chickpea Tikka Masala. 😋 It’s DELISH and VEGAN and SO EASY to throw together! ⬇️ Recipe below. 2 T. garam masala 1 t. ground cumin 1 t. turmeric 1 t. smoked paprika 1/2 t. cayenne 1 T. olive oil 1 yellow onion, diced 4 cloves garlic, minced 2 T. fresh ginger, minced 1 head cauliflower, cut into florets 1 - 15 oz. can chickpeas, drained & rinsed 1 - 15 oz. can tomato sauce 3/4 c. vegetable broth 1 - 15 oz. can light coconut milk Salt & pepper, to taste 1) Heat a large Dutch oven or pan over medium heat and add the olive oil. Once hot, add the onion, garlic and ginger and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. 2) Add the spices and toss well to coat. Add the cauliflower, and again, toss well to coat. As soon as everything is tossed together, immediately pour in the vegetable broth so the mixture doesn’t start to burn. Season with salt and pepper, then reduce heat to medium-low and cook for 8 minutes, stirring every couple of minutes. 3) Pour in the tomato sauce, coconut milk and canned chickpeas. Allow to simmer for 15 minutes or until thickened. Serve the tikka masala on its own or with rice, naan or quinoa.

🚨Doctored-up dinner alert! 🚨 Do you ever order takeout and modify it at home? 🔥I ordered pizza with 2 toppings (because they were $1 apiece), then added red onions & a bit of extra cheese at home. Broil and it’s perfect! What are your takeout hacks? ⬇️ Comment below!
💛❤️ BUTTERNUT QUESO SHELLS ❤️💛 This dish may look (and sound) truly decadent, but looks can be deceiving! The sauce for this pasta dish is 100% plant-based — made with butternut squash, @roteltomatoes, nutritional yeast, unsweetened almond milk & plenty of spices, it’s like your favorite @velveeta queso but totally healthy-fied. Plus, we used @eatbanza shells (made with chickpeas) to increase the protein factor — no blood sugar crash with this veggie pasta dish! Top with your favorite hot sauce (I used @franksredhot) and you’ll be good to go. ⬇️ Recipe below! INGREDIENTS - 2 lbs. cooked butternut squash - 1 can of Rotel (diced tomatoes & green chiles) - 1/2 red onion, diced - 6 T. nutritional yeast - 2 c. unsweetened almond milk or plant milk of choice - 2 T. minced garlic - 4 t. chili powder - 1 T. ground cumin - 4 t. freshly cracked black pepper - Olive oil cooking spray - 8 oz. box of shells (we used Banza) - Hot sauce of choice 1. Spray a bit of olive oil cooking spray into a pan over medium heat. Add the red onion and sauté until translucent. Set aside. 2. Use an immersion blender or regular blender to blend together the cooked buttoned squash, nutritional yeast, almond milk, garlic, chili powder, ground cumin and pepper. Season with a pinch of salt. Transfer to a saucepan over medium heat. 3. Stir in the Rotel and red onion and heat until warm. 4. While the sauce is cooking, boil your pasta. 5. There will be MUCH more sauce than you need, so when you’re ready to eat, spoon the pasta individually into each bowl, then top with sauce and toss. Finish with your favorite hot sauce. Use the sauce within the next 3-5 on your favorite pasta, over rice & beans or even by itself as a soup (trust me, it’s delicious)!
Vegan Zoodles with Romesco Sauce — it’s my latest plant-based obsession! 😍 Minimal ingredients make this a super easy yet savory lunch or dinner.

Blend again to combine. 2. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spray a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray. Add the spiralized zucchini evenly across the sheet. Season with salt, black pepper, garlic powder and red pepper flakes. Bake for 10 minutes, remove and toss, then bake for 15 minutes. 3. While the zucchini is cooking, add the romesco sauce to a small pan and heat over medium-low heat until warm. 4. Toss the zucchini with romesco sauce (only as much as you’d like) and finish with a sprinkle of nutritional yeast, if desired.

My current go-to when I’m craving tacos = Lentil Walnut Taco Meat. 🌮 This plant-based recipe is PERFECT for recreating basic #TacoBell-style tacos — but you can also dress it up with grilled tortillas, fresh cilantro & much more! ⬇️ Snag the recipe below. 🌶️ LENTIL WALNUT TACO MEAT * 1 pat of butter or 2 T. olive oil * 3 large carrots, peeled & shredded * 1 yellow onion, diced * 1 green bell pepper, diced * 1-2 T. minced garlic * 1 T. vegetarian Worcestershire sauce * 1 T. apple cider vinegar * 2 t. ground cumin * 2 t. chili powder * 2 t. dried oregano * 1 t. chipotle powder * 1 t. smoked paprika * Black pepper, to taste * 6 oz. chopped walnuts * 8 oz. tomato sauce * 1/2 c. vegetable broth * 2 c. cooked brown lentils * 14 oz. tomatillo enchilada sauce (I prefer the @granluchito brand) 1️⃣ Melt the butter or olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. 2️⃣ Add the carrots, yellow onion and green bell pepper and cook for 6 minutes, stirring occasionally. 3️⃣ Add the garlic and cook for 2 minutes. 4️⃣ Add the Worcestershire sauce, apple cider vinegar, cumin, chili powder, chipotle powder, smoked paprika and oregano. Season with black pepper. Stir well to combine. 5️⃣ Add the walnuts, tomato sauce and vegetable broth. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring often to prevent the mixture from sticking. 6️⃣ Add the lentils and enchilada sauce. Reduce the heat to low and simmer the mixture for 10 minutes, or until most liquid has been absorbed/evaporated. Continue to stir often so the mixture doesn’t stick. 7️⃣ Serve with your favorite tortillas and toppings!
Here’s a yummy, umami-packed recipe for everyone participating in #Veganuary: Lentil Quinoa Broth Bowls. 🌱 I personally love how it’s a bit spicy, a bit tangy and oh so filling! ⬇️ Recipe below. LENTIL QUINOA BROTH BOWLS * Small yellow onion, chopped * 2-3 garlic cloves, minced * 1 c. cooked brown lentils * 1/2 c. uncooked quinoa * 2 1/2 T. tomato paste * 2 1/2 T. gochujang * 1 T. low-sodium soy sauce * 2 T. sesame oil * 1 T. ground ginger * 1 t. garlic powder * 2 t. smoked paprika * 1 bay leaf * 4 c. vegetable broth * 1 1/2 c. chopped kale * Juice of 1/2 a lemon or lime * Sliced lemons or limes, to garnish 1️⃣ Cook the lentils according to package directions and set aside. 2️⃣ In a large bowl, combine the vegetable broth, tomato paste, gochujang, soy sauce, 1 T. sesame oil, citrus juice, ginger, garlic powder and paprika. Whisk well. 3️⃣ In a large pot over medium-high heat, add the remaining tablespoon of sesame oil and sauté the onions and minced garlic until the onions are translucent. Pour in the vegetable broth and add the quinoa and a bay leaf. Bring the mixture to a boil. 4️⃣ Once the mixture boils, cover the pot and bring the heat down to low. Allow to simmer for about 20 minutes until the quinoa is fully cooked. 5️⃣ Before serving, remove the bay leaf and stir in the lentils and kale, allowing the kale to wilt. Scoop into a bowl and top with lemon or lime slices.
Hitting the gym this #January? 💪 I prefer working out at home and have REALLY been digging @nourishmovelove’s 35-minute HIIT series (available for FREE on YouTube). 🔥 Here’s my go-to post-workout fuel: Cheesy Egg White Veggie Cups! Today I served them on @daveskillerbread English muffins with salsa & sriracha. ⬇️ Recipe below! 🧀🫑 CHEESY EGG WHITE VEGGIE CUPS - Liquid egg whites - Veggies of choice, diced (I used red onion and green + yellow bell peppers) - Shredded cheese of choice (I used Swiss) - Black pepper 1️⃣ Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray nonstick cooking spray in a muffin tin. 2️⃣ Fill each space of the muffin tin about 2/3 with veggies. Pour liquid egg whites over the veggies, not quite to the top. Finish with shredded cheese and sprinkle with black pepper. 3️⃣ Bake for 25 minutes. Enjoy!
Thanks to @the_winstonpub for having us out to try their vegetarian brunch options! 🍳🥑 Loved the hearty, flavorful Shakshuka. I’m not a big fan of sunnyside eggs, so they were kind enough to swap with scrambled. The eggs + avocado are served over roasted tomato stew and corn cakes and topped with creamy feta. Plus, can’t go wrong with Avocado Toast! Smashed avocado + eggs on sourdough toast alongside greens with a tangy lemon vinaigrette.
BBQ pizza, but make it low-carb & vegetarian! 😋 1️⃣ First, roast 2 cans of chickpeas in a skillet w/ olive oil over medium heat for about 5 minutes. Add 1 teaspoon each of chili powder, cumin, paprika, garlic powder & onion powder. Sprinkle w/ salt & sugar and season with black pepper and cook another 4-5 minutes. Remove from heat when crispy. 2️⃣ We used @caulipower frozen crust & spread on a mixture of pizza sauce and @rednecklipstick original gluten free BBQ sauce. Topped with mozzarella, cheddar, red onion, yellow + green bell peppers and the chickpeas. Cook at 425 degrees for 15 minutes. 3️⃣ When the pizza is done cooking, finish with green onions & drizzle with sriracha!
Happy New Year to all and may everyone have a wonderful year to come!!! And what best way to welcome a New Year? Feast your eyes on a beautiful ornamental plant...the Jigsaw Pepper! With beautiful multicolored leaves of cream, purple, lavender, white and green, the fruits also ranges in color from multicolors of dark purple to deep red. It's just a firework of colors and a conversational piece in any garden! Yes, it is also edible however, the taste is just like any regular pepper, for us, it doesn't pack that much heat, maybe a jalapeño or less. It's a good snacking pepper, maybe even good candied. #jigsawpepper #ornamentalpeppers #gardening #gardeninginspiration #gardeningtherapy #gardeningideas #gardeninglife #gardeninglove #gardeninglovers #gardeningaddict #gardening101 #gardeningmakesmehappy #gardeningismytherapy #gardeningisfun #gardeningislife #gardeningisgoodforthesoul #gardeningformentalhealth #gardening4pleasure #happygardening #happygardener #gardenerslife #gardenersofinstagram #gardenideas #gardenmoods #gardensofinstagram #gardenstagram #vegetablegardening #okcveggie #oklahomagardening
