That's what we do, anyway :) Sometimes a few make it inside to be steamed and served with butter. Did you know you can also eat the leafy tips of the plants? Just lightly steam/stir fry, they are delicious. Eat ‘em raw, standing in the garden. That’s what we do, anyway :) Sometimes a few make it inside to be steamed and served with butter.

You said no nuts but seasame isn`t really a nut... You could do a Japanese dish called gomae beans- easy recipe is here http://www.bento.com/trt-green.html Substitute a little chicken stock instead of dashi stock since it is difficult to get in Australia ready made and I make it without miso so you could skip that too if you wanted!
