February 2024, the brokest month of my entire grown up life. Usually when I'm this broke, I forage for mussels at the nearby beach, but today the tide was too high. It's a day before pay day and I literally have no food at all and I was starving. So I've been snacking on Lilly Pillys and tonight, it dawned on me that I have broccoli growing in my garden. Searched online if the leaves were edible and found this page. I just rolled them in a little oil, seasoned with some salt and pepper, popped them in the microwave for a few seconds and I had the broadest smile on my face afterwards. I love mother nature.
That was a cool video! I never thought to eat the broccoli leaves, let alone cook them in the omelette. I knew it was gonna be great when your first ingredient was bacon and bacon grease. 😂🥓🙌🏾
I found out last year that broccoli leaves are edible, but I shared them with our pet rabbit. However this next year our rabbit will have to share, because that omelette looks yummy.
They are! I've never had any until last year. I was always sad to just throw the plant away after harvesting the crown. Now I feel like there is a whole new reason to grow them!
Months ago I shoved the end of the broccoli I cut off that I bought from the store and it's growing huge so many leaves, produced flowers that went seed and has propagated it's own seeds. 🎉
Justin, to tell you the truth, I had never even considered eating the leaves of my broccoli plants. However, now I will try them this year! It's amazing how much produce I've wasted in the past. By the way, it's great to see you doing videos again, I've missed you on RUclips. Have a great week! ~Margie🤗🥦🥬🥓
Great idea ! This is perfect . Is that your backyard garden now ? We need serial videos when you plant and what you do and use your garden as the demo . Love your videos !
This video was actually filmed this past fall. Unfortunately, I was sick most of January and wasn't able to film a lot. I am much better now and have some new videos on the way! The next one one relates to starting seeds for Spring 2023!
Hello Justin, I’m start to eat broccoli leaves now! I’ve been growing broccoli all winter long and they never froze out. Who would know? I’m in 7B, broccoli is easy to grow and fun to eat.
Hi Justin my Friend. Sorry that you were ill. I sincerely hope you are better. You have been missed. This was a very good video. Its all about eating healthy right? Whether eating the greens or reusing them as compost, we practice sustainability. Of course, we do like them as Food. Thanks for sharing. Cheers!!!
Thanks! Looking forward to giving it a try soon! Hope you survived using a metal spatula on that lovely non-stick.pan! 😂 Mu son even knows no metal on my pots!
Finally 😊 I posted about this on one of your videos. On another note we buy lettuce variety pks that are whole bunches and I have those a cabbage stem leftover from one we got at the store because mine aren’t ready yet and they’re growing great. I moved the cabbage outside today. I did the same thing with the crown of a pineapple and it’s almost time to repot it and move it outside. To do pineapple you cut the crown or green leafy part off the top of the pineapple then remove several layers of leaves from bottom til you see roots. Plant in a container and keep moist not wet until it’s warm enough to set outside. Bring it in every winter or first sign of frost in your area.
Thank you for this video, i didn't know you could eat the leaves! Beginner here lol😂 I'm learning so much from you and just wanted to say THANK YOU!! You have helped me tremendously!! I have some things planted but wasn't sure what needed staking or which needed a trellis until i came across your channel!! And yes please do more videos like this one! ❤
Justin this was a great video. Can you cook Broccoli leaves like Bruce does his collards? Never thought of eating broccoli leaves until this video. Definitely will try it out.
Great idea .. love all greens … wish I grew my own Broccoli to give it a try …Omelettes are my favourite “fast food” …thanks for posting.. New subscriber from Scotland 👌🏻
Hi Justin, I love your videos and cheerful attitude. 😀👍 I grew up on a farm and we used to eat everything, from plants and animals, so broccoli leaves too. Just please, please, ditch that non-stick pan, it's toxic and it kills you, and nobody wants that. 😊
Broccoli, kale, cauliflower, cabbage, kohlrabi and brussels sprouts are different cultivars of one species. I stopped growing collards and kale 20 years ago because the leaves from my broccoli, kohlrabi and brussels sprouts could replace them in my diet. Collards and kale seemed like a waste of garden space. Kohlrabi has the sweetest and most tender leaves of all of them. Swiss chard and beets are one species, too. One develops a big edible root and the other doesn't. The greens are exactly the same except for color. If the color matters, grow both. If not, only grow beets and eat the greens.
I didn’t die! I’m not one to be wasteful. That’s for the tip. I understand that plants want us healthy so we could feed them when we pass on. It’s a circle of life. You’re doing a good thing. Keep it up. Don’t stop we all need this kind of encouragement to live a healthier life. Can you dig it?
I was wondering about the leaves. Would you be able to use the leaves after you get the main brocolli and side shoots ornwouldnit become bitter? Thanks for the video.
Sometimes my broccoli wouldn't head up so I cooked leaves with radish n turnip tops n all other greens..and I cringed everytime you used the metal spatula on that pan 😄

Awesome. Try the oven or a slight pan sear. We gotta leave the microwaves in the past

Light bulb 💡 moment! 🥦 leaves wow.
I have never thought to eat the leaves/greens!? Great idea would make a great filler in soups, salads, and shakes.
Didn't know you cooked too! Awesome!
You make a great video! Great editing. It's fun and I learned something. 😌
Looks great 👍
With a flat griddle the omelet flips perfectly and you can cook more bacon. Good video

Also just found out brocoli leaves can be eaten! Wish the supermarkets can sell them too. I have never seen them anywhere not even in sunday markets.
Some great ideas! Thanks for this video. My leaves are so nice on my broccoli and the florets are almost done. I'm going to start eating them!!
Beautiful garden! Appreciate that Info. So excited to go cut monstrous broccoli leaves now : )
That omelette looked so yummy
I love this content because it's informative and also has a few funny moments too!

I would eat them if I could grow broccoli. Living in KC and the bugs are horrid…Japanese beetles destroyed my garden last year. 😢 love your channel 😊
Love this! You can cook too!
Now I know I'm going to do when the guest chefs appear for the the first fire of the new smoker
I like how the safari hat goes from garden to kitchen like nothing.
🤣
Loved this video !
I have to try this with my broccoli leaves 🙏🏾
If you harvest leaves will the plant still produce broccoli heads?
Our new favorite channel! Keep making these videos! 👍
Great video buddy 👍 man you can cook!
That was a nice looking omelette 😋
Awesome video! I will from now on be eating my broccoli green!
Love this! Let’s have more!!
Thanks. Great ideas. I was wondering about eating the leaves!
What are the dimensions of your raised beds? Also what type/size wood did you use? So glad I came across your channel! 🙌
Thanks for watching! Let me ask him!
4x8 22” high pressure treated pine!
Thanks for watching!
Ok great thank you!
@@abby8133 absolutely! Happy to help!
I feel like I’ve wasted my life not knowing this 😅 can’t wait to try broccoli leaves this summer!
Good info
Great stuff
I'm never planted broccoli in my vegetable garden.....well, until now.
Excellent suggestions.
And good luck with the nursery this spring.
Yes, enjoyable video.
Lol!!! Can you do a video on deer fencing? My garden has been destroyed this winter!😭

Good to know, I thought you could eat it all along
I was wondering about the leaves. Would you be able to use the leaves after you get the main brocolli and side shoots ornwouldnit become bitter? Thanks for the video.
Yes a Great Video!! 👍
Awesome video thanks man I’m subscribing
Thank you!!!
Your garden is ridiculously beautiful! How did you project from that $%%^&%##% “bomb cyclone”? All my brassicas died. 😔
😆 good food!
(You also proved that bacon and onion and cheese make everything better!)
I would love a garden bed like that! I have the space but not the time! It just seems so much work😂
What fertilizer you use?
What about Cauliflower leaves?
👌👌👌
Yummy 😋
Love this video
enjoyed this
The superman jump! 🤣🤣
What broccoli variety do you have planted?
That's it. I'm off to the garden to cut some broccoli leaves...
Lovely Omelette.
Brussel Sprout Leaves!!! Much tastier than cabbage.
🤔 I'll have to give them a shot!
@@skgreenhouse One of my fav foods & plentiful early. The taste is awesome!
Sometimes my broccoli wouldn't head up so I cooked leaves with radish n turnip tops n all other greens..and I cringed everytime you used the metal spatula on that pan 😄
I did not know how to use my used up brocoli plant.
I had no idea you could eat broccoli leaves!
Great Video and I will check it out! Get yourself some "Slap yo Mama seasoning! Better than Tony's! The more you add the hotter it gets!
I use my broccoli leaves as a substitute for hamburger buns and taco shells.
Lettuce know in the comments
I juice them
Nooooice! 🙌🏽
