Broccoli Leaves... Who knew?

My sister, Mary,  lives in San Diego.  She went to dinner to a Thai restaurant for her birthday.  She talked about a"roll up" dish which had broccoli  leaves as the outer wrap.  She said it was crunchy and delicious.   She referred me to this link- https://www.plantsmartliving.com/blog/top-10-reasons-why-you-should-eat-broccoli-leaves

There's a video clip of farmer Fred and some text listing the 10 reasons to eat broccoli leaves. The surprise for me was they are good for eye health.
It's well worth a look -

thanks Mary.

It's also thanks to Mary that I am growing pansies to eat.  At her daughter's wedding they served Vietnamese rice paper rolls that were wrapped to show the pansy flower inside..   talk about wow factor.
