Recipe of the Week

Hi MaryJane,
There’s an onion sprouting in my fridge. Is this normal? It’s a red onion
I bought and forgot to eat. It has a couple of three-inch long stems growing
out of it. Should I try to plant it? What do I do?
— Anxious Farmgirl

Dear Anxious Farmgirl,
You can do one of two things: you can plant it or you can eat it. If I were you, I would do the latter ... in my opinion, there is nothing like an onion sandwich!
See ya soon,
