I'm always so happy when I get the notification that you have uploaded a new video!!

@carolavant3778 Год назад

Hi, Kevin! What a lovely summer supper!! You might want to purchase a garden collander so you can rinse most of the dirt off your veggies before you bring them in your house. It also minimizes the amount of dirt you're putting down your drain, and if you do your rinsing over a garden bed, you're keeping that good soil in your garden.

@barbiec4312 Год назад

Good call. My brother is a plumber and he says you should put ONLY liquids down your drain. That means stop using your garbage disposal too. This is especially true of older houses.

Good advice!

@happyday8280 Год назад

I was as excited as you during harvest of your carrots! Mmmm delicious meal … I use my air fryer for my veg … quicker, cheaper and soooo tasty 😋.. hello Avery ! 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧😍🌹

@adriaschumann9641 Год назад

I'd like to see you plant pumpkins which will be harvested in October in time for Halloween. Thank you.

@eileenrosemond98 Год назад

O Kevin, this looks so divine. Thanks for sharing.

@nicolesawford5548 Год назад

Who would have thought to make pesto out of carrot tops! I am certainly going to make this. Thank you for this lovely recipe. You got a good bounty of carrots. Here in the Ottawa Valley in Ontario, Canada we received a lot of rain and smoke from the forest fires and our vegetable gardens are not as bountiful as previous years. Have yourself a wonderful week Kevin. My sister and I love your videos!

@daniellecrevier970 Год назад

Hello from Canada. I had no Idea that we could use carrot tops to make Pesto. I know it has to be amazing, when you taste and do the Kevin Happy Dance😀Thank you for showing use how and may I say, you have a beautiful dog. All the best to you Kevin.

@judybutler5129 Год назад

Yes, Kevin is talented in so many ways. His recipes are amazing and delicious. Have you watched/heard him play the piano? Absolutely beautiful! Oh! And his dog's name is Avery! She is sweet and gorgeous!

Kevin, thank you for your touching presentations of the the simplicities of life that are gained from respecting the harvests of our wonderful Earth and gifts of Mother nature. I so enjoy the Serenity of the Tranquil gardens and Peaceful Tours of your Estate.

@KS-ts3le Год назад

That is a healthy lovely dinner. I wish I had those carrots.

@sofie322 Год назад

Lovely carrots and meal.

@lisaray9404 Год назад

Thank you for the wonderful video. I always enjoy watching you work your garden magic. The carrots look delicious. I'd love to make some carrot cakes from them and put some away, like the pesto, for cool/cold weather enjoyment. And also some maple glazed carrots and maybe cut some up to put away for more soups and stews. Thank you again! Take care and be safe. Hug that sweet pup for me. 😊💖🙏

@Ura13dur 8 месяцев назад

Carrot are very red, which means they contain a lot of carotene. The dog is very kind and lives you.

@JeffJefferson Год назад

Great job with that Carrot Top Pesto… I love that you put it on the side as many would have smothered the dish in pesto sauce…sometimes pesto gets quite overwhelming !!!

@vivianporter1303 Год назад

Kevin I have never eaten Pesto ,now I am going to try it and your carrots are lovely .

@michaelgray1123 Год назад

Looks delicious................ You are a man of many talents!!!!!

@SlimshadyVictoria Год назад

Carrot top pesto....I have NEVER seen another chef make this! Can,t wait to try this recipe! And....lunch in the serpentine garden, my favorite spot of all.❤ I LOVE carrots roasted, sauteed, baked, stir fried....Will have these tonight as well. Well done Kevin, thank you,I LOVE your channel!

@toddmerritt960 Год назад

Kevin your videos are some of the best on RU-vid I follow probably 50+ homemaker/ cooking channels and yours is superb and so informative! All your recipes look delicious and your home is beautiful! And your kitty and dog are so sweet! Happy mid summer, lots of blessings from North Georgia Todd ✌😀🌷🌷🌷

@carysjones3376 Год назад

What a fabulous idea! I mentioned to a neighbour that my dog was eating my carrot tops, and she sent me this link. Definitely going to try it - if I manage to save some from the pup 😅

@dragonrising11 Год назад

You have really opened my eyes to the many variations of pesto!!

So wonderful.

Que bonitas las zanahorias! 🥕🥕🥕Y super sabroso el platillo con el pesto!. ❤

@PAWS615 Год назад

Hi Kevin! Always love watching your videos. I also live in NY and there are several different crops that you can plant after harvesting carrots. If you follow the rule of "crop rotation", you will benefit by planting legumes, onions, beets and chard. Also, cucumbers, tomatoes, squash, peppers and melons will also work well. I might just plant some more carrots now after watching your carrot pesto recipe! Good luck with your planting! 😊

@dlgoodwin1542 Год назад

Beautiful harvest and another great video! Thanks, Kevin!! I so look forward to your posts!

@sayso2441 Год назад

You did an amazing job of growing your carrots! I have such a hard time growing them and will watch your video on when you planted them. The pesto sounds so good I must try it! Always enjoy your videos especially anything gardening!♥️

@JeanWilliams-dy3du Год назад

You are truly amazing, and it's a joy to enjoy time with you.

@marymarks7046 Год назад

Thank you for making everything you do look luxurious. You are always a joy to watch. BTW, your Sausage egg casserole recipe was amazing and oh so satisfying. The next time I'm going to make it with breakfast sausage or even add ricotta cheese to the egg mixture! TFS.

@kevinleejacobs1364 Год назад

Glad you enjoyed the casserole!

@RockyValentino2013 Год назад

Another yummy meal 🤩thank you Kevin 🤗

@lankenaugirl Год назад

Kevin, your videos are like a lovely meditation. Thank you so much for the recipes and sharing your beautiful spirit with us.

@lilahasson5110 Год назад

I’ve never thought of making pesto from carrot tops. I must admit that it looks delicious. Have a good weekend and I’m looking forward to your next visit. ❤

@donnaclinton5578 Год назад

The carrots are beautiful! I’ll have to take a trip to the organic market and look for carrots with the tops. I’d like to try this pesto recipe. Enjoy the lovely weather today.

@sharonhines9698 Год назад

That meal looked devine, light and healthy! Love your style of cooking, and your comforting charm!

@karenmar1529 Год назад

It must be so satisfying to harvest your own vegetables. The carrots looked wonderful. A great summertime meal.

@sunset6010 Год назад

BEAUTIFUL carrots! 🥕 🥕 🥕 The carrot pesto & fish 🐟 looked delectable !! ❤

@Mozartandme Год назад

You make everything in the world more exciting than it looks! We’re so lucky to have you to teach us. Thank you.

@Mozartandme Год назад

Oh by the way, one of the first times I came here and I left a comment. Somehow I went away with somebody else’s name. This is not my name this braces person my name is Mozart and me or in real life MARGARET ANN Murphy so I’m gonna go try to figure out why somebody would want my name and why the heck they can just give me no braces what the heck that has nothing to do with my life. However, more importantly, you are teaching us so much the class you have is just so wonderful as in you have class, not as in you have a class you have class Mr. Kevin.

@helenrohl1113 Год назад

Hi Kevin great to see you again.

@skatingmom4 Год назад

That Pesto looks amazing and I love your blue dinner plates. I have those dishes, I bought them in Williamsburg, VA 35 years ago. They are my favorite dishes.

@susanprice7202 Год назад

Those are absolutely beautiful carrots! I'd never heard of carrot pesto but what a lovely idea. Glad you froze a batch for later! Thank you for sharing your recipes and ideas. Much appreciated!😀😀💯❤🥕🥕🥕

@ricardapoznanski5604 Год назад

Great idea-to make pesto out of the carrot-tops.....sounds very delicious ans healthy .... You inspired me for gardening...and I too had a harvesting day today.....tomatoes...and parsley....so I had a cosy,Light dinner wirh a tomatoe-sandwich with your signature parsley-salat...... Have a lovely evening

@katescott8130 Год назад

Dear Kevin, you make everything look so delicious and eating outside in your garden looks so cozy! Thank you for the carrot top pesto recipe!🌿

@mavep2855 Год назад

Harvesting carrots is a lot of fun and you had a bumper crop. I will definitely try the pesto recipe. I use radish tops to make pesto and also a delicious soup. Waste not, want not. We had two tornados touch down in our city last week so I understand your concerns with weather conditions. Thanks Kevin.🙏❤️

@tkopal8465 Год назад

My carrots look similar. The recipe is perfect, I encourage everyone to make it. The fish is absolutely delicious made the way Kevin recommends.

@Bartha_Stewit Год назад

The carrot top pesto looked delish - will have to give it a try! So enjoyable watching you make everything.

@nicolecouture4514 Год назад

Wow! I didn't know you could do carrot top pesto. Thanks for sharing, Kevin.❤

@akeminakashima8328 Год назад

Your pesto seems to be yummy ! And the carrots were happy when you laid them in the baking dish !

@cindymuench5425 Год назад

Great job on your 🥕carrots. You’re a man of many talents. Hi Avery, you are such a sweetheart!😊

@mejustme474 Год назад

I believe it is because they are a tad crowded, If I’m Not mistaken the ratio is 16 per sq foot but carrots need more space because they fight over the nutrients to grow so it best to sew them 9 per sq foot. Then you get fat fatties ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

@janetbirkmann669 Год назад

This was so fun! Hi Avery!

@barbiec4312 Год назад

“Beauties”, my husband said when he saw those carrots. I agree! 🥕🥕🥕

@betsymcgovern3267 Год назад

What a fabulous idea, to roast the carrots whole! And such a beautiful presentation. We always have a delicious dinner every time you post!

@melissalambert7615 Год назад

Lovely roasted carrots and pesto. You need a garden bucket to rinse produce before bringing in. Save the soil water for the garden. You might start a fall crop of some greens. Chard or kale. I've heard kale gets sweeter after a good frost. What are you going to do with all those other carrots?

@peggyboehnlein8755 Год назад

That just looks heavenly!

@charlenewilliford6957 Год назад

Perfect meal! I did watch you plant the carrots and can’t believe they are ready for harvest . Beautiful carrots❤

@leslieweber5177 Год назад

The carrots are beautiful! Try a drizzle of balsamic vinegar over roasted carrots…delicious. 🥕❤️🥕

@Timenow1 Год назад

Yaaaas, that is the only way I eat my Roasted Carrots & Roasted Brussel Sprouts (MY ABSOLUTE FAVE, Now I'm drooling 😂)

@santarivera1939 Год назад

Love❤, love, love. Was sorry to hear about the rain damage..as you, we have the rains here at Staten Island..every time I make " by the beach" plans, all falls thru by awful thunders..we also had a weird winter. I'm done with the " poor air quality " alerts. Let's keep enjoying 😊

@TCat13 Год назад

What a beautiful harvest!! 🥕👍🌞 I love making use of things like carrot tops and radish greens, etc., so am looking forward to trying this one. Thank you once again for the inspo!

@bettinabarry8423 Год назад

Always a delight and I always learn something new❤ Thank you, Kevin, for your enthusiasm and creativity 👏

@teresaramos1719 Год назад

Such a colorful dish..just 😍 lovely.

@worldofthesupernatural Год назад

How I have missed gardening since my mom passed away. I always cared for her garden. You keep my memories alive with these beautiful forays!

@suzanneharris8339 Год назад

What a beautiful, colorful video! The dark soil, the bright green & orange from the 🥕 carrots, the softer green of the pesto, & the paprika on the white cod..... & I know it tasted as good as it looks. Bravo, Kevin! 👆

@Shmule Год назад

Kevin suggestion sir. Your valued advice on ideas, interior design , equipment referrals are so much appreciated. My suggestion is have you ever thought of adding to your videos book that you have/had read, books that inspire your creativity? Kevin you have gained a reputation of sensible ideas in all areas pertaining to creating a home that not only looks beautiful but speaks creating peaceful living in a world that needs ideas

@artfulcookingwithdawn9000 Год назад

Kevin, I had to circle back to let you know I did make the carrot top pesto- what a fantastic use of something that many people would waste- I used walnuts instead of almonds because I had extra of those. Delicious!

@kevinleejacobs1364 Год назад

I'm so glad!

@MaryLuminary Год назад

Wonderful to pick your own organic carrots fresh from the garden, then serve for dinner. The pesto could be mixed with noodles or maybe on a veggie sandwich. I bet that it's very healthy too. Another great meal to serve alfresco in the garden. I wonder if you might plant some pumpkins in the empty spot in the garden. You could plant different colors, orange, white, green, just for fun. What about those blue Hubbard squash? You will be set for Halloween and Thanksgiving. Thank you for sharing with us. Take care.♥️🐕🥕

@maryhaile9017 Год назад

I love your easy going style, would love to have you as a neighbor!

@mjecheverria4197 Год назад

Beautiful recolte Kevin❤😊

@gloriarangott8803 Год назад

How about planting beets. The leaves are great for a spinach sort of sautée, and the beets...so many thing you make from them.

@stephenburns3678 Год назад

Pesto is a favorite. Will make it soon. Can get organics at the local farmers market. Thanks for all you do.

@toocute8858 Год назад

I am enjoying your videos and find them both informative and relaxing. Carrot top chimichurri is another option. Also, if you take a five-gallon bucket of water with you when you pick veggies and dip veggies as you go, the cleaning process is easier. Using this method and dipping soft squash like zucchini will minimize the grit that can become imbedded in the skins.

@mariongould4173 Год назад

Soak the seeds in water, faster germination. I also soak flower seeds. I put lentils in water to clean with the intent to cook but l left them too long so I drained them, put them in the frig. within days they were sprouting.

@heatherkennedy9973 Год назад

johnney's seeds also has the purple cauliflower and the green plus some pretty creamy colored ones--in ref to your last video

@sherilynpeters6459 Год назад

Your carrots look lovely. I plant green beans in mid July. Always a great addition to soups and stews in the Fall. I have never had carrot top pesto. I t have always grown all of my vegetables organically. So much healthier.😊

@dr.jeanne Год назад

Hi Kevin: Thank you for another day in your gorgeous garden! I think chipmunks or rabbits ate my carrots this year. Oh well, they have to eat, too. Love the idea of carrot top pesto! For the remaining summer garden, how about different cabbages, flax, or wheat?

@darlenemitrevics Год назад

I've never grown that variety, but I will this winter. I live in Arizona, and the saying goes that by August the only thing that grows is the dirt!

@Siameezkattwo Год назад

Hi Kevin, Your carrots were lovely. Loved the pesto idea why not right?! I was wondering as you were pulling all your carrots what to plant now mid season. 🥕

@CDM-ss2ck Год назад

they look so fresh

@zerdda Год назад

Another delightful video. Thank you!!!

@bettyhigginson6770 Год назад

I'm surprised you're harvesting them so early. We never pulled our carrots until late fall. Just noticed you said they were planted in April. We generally try to have our vegetable seeds planted by May long weekend in Manitoba. Different growing season.

@Gwing7061 Год назад

Hello Kevin x A great idea to use the carrot tops for pesto, I've never thought of it before, thank you for the recipe. A healthy , easy dinner in no time. I will definitely be trying this one x ps what a wonderful yield from all your hard work in the veggie patch, I was really excited to see all the different colours of the carrots and wondered if the flavours are different too 🐝🐞🌿🌳🌸

@kathleencowley7772 Год назад

Greetings, I noticed that you use your white "kook" dishes as utensil rests. What a good idea! I have used them for gratins, fish dishes, or corn and/or baked potato side dishes.

@ritacarlson9522 Год назад

What beautiful carrots 🥕 ...I lost most of my carrots to the groundhog that I recently discovered has made it's home under my back porch...life...isn't it amazing Kevin 😅 Thank you for the great video...enjoyed the recipe for pesto 😊

@mrob75 Год назад

carrot top pesto…who would have “thunk it” :--). I look so forward to trying this recipe! For added fun, I’d serve the pesto at the top of the carrot where the leaves would have been.!
