Fun Fact #3 - Onions

Did you know "green onions" (aka scallions) are just the top part of an onion plant? Scallions are the part that grow above the ground while the onion bulb grows at the root. I've left most of the onions underground to get bigger but I'll take few scallions here and there when I need them. It's an amazing two-for-one veggie!

Using some of this fun fact in dinner tonight...

A big thanks to Cathay for donating all her onion "leftovers" to my garden!
