Use sprigs mint as a pretty garnish for a special dessert.
For a casual arrangement for your dining room or kitchenTable, fill an attractive glass or ceramic jug vase or other container with water. Add several long branches of fresh mint (being sure to layer removed, all mint, would be covered by water). The mint will add color in the room, scent the air, and even help remove pesky ants.
Pot your favorite mint in a pretty container on your porch for a welcoming fresh scent for everyone who comes to visit.
Add chopped mint and scrambled eggs,Omelettes, quiches or casseroles.
Mix with mint in your regular tabbouleh recipe for a refreshing summer salad.
Add mint cooked peas, carrots, potatoes, or at the end of the cooking process, then you throw the mint before serving the vegetables.
