10 vegetables that you should always grow based on a combination of how easy they are to grow how versatile they are to use how productive the crops are how healthy they are to eat and how good they taste this veggie list is ranked from best to awesomeness in order of always grownness let's get into it. Number one is lettuce who can't grow lettuce? I can't get rid of it it even grows on my lawn. Lettuce is high in nutrients but exceptionally low in calories. Lettuce is very hydrating if you're feeling thirsty have a drink of lettuce by eating it lettuce is good on its own as a salad but it's also one of those maker foods that you don't notice until it's not there like an egg and lettuce sandwich the egg is the hero but the lettuce is what makes it or shredded lettuce in a taco or how about lettuce in the base of a prawn cocktail with island sauce. Now that takes me back to number two carrots the reason they started Bugs Bunny was to get more people from a young age interested in eating carrots that's not true I just made that up but if it was true that'd be pretty amazing. Carrots are indeed good for you and although help to improve your eyesight might be a myth the antioxidants lutein and beta carotene contained in carrots are known to help protect eyesight carrots have a large temperature growing range which means they can be grown in many climates all year round they're also very productive.
Number three is cabbage vases dust this is fine what's German for cabbage sauerkraut vases that's this vein sauerkraut cabbage. Number four is beetroots roots that plural doesn't sound quite right beetroots let's just call them beets it beats the sugar out of me. Number five is onions you know when I think about onions it brings tears to my eyes this vegetable is practically in everything from sauces to Bunnings sausage sizzles just remember to put the onions on the bread first. Number six is cucumbers you know the saying as cool as a cucumber well in 1970 they did a study and found that the internal temperature of a cucumber was cooler than the outside temperature on a warm day. Cucumbers contain zero fat and are made up of about 96 water which makes them an excellent low-calorie snack for those watching their weight or constipated don't laugh if you chakra up the blocker eating cucumbers can help you get regular again plus cucumbers are high in nutrients on their own.
Number seven is peas shelling peas might be easy but so is growing them and there are not many people that don't like eating them either and that's why peas are one of the best staples in the world today. Peas are one of those foods that taste good and are good for you because they contain lots of healthy elements including vitamin K and manganese which both can help with healing the body. Number eight is beans which are even slightly better beans as most of us know are one of the most complete foods you can grow, meaning they contain so many important nutrients that you could almost survive on beans alone. Number nine is tomatoes and speaking of beans how good are baked beans in tomato sauce a classic match tomatoes are another suitable and if I allowed my personal bias to take over. Number 10 are potatoes there's a good reason why I selected potato as my top 10 of foods.
Potato has more potassium than a banana potassium is an essential electrolyte needed for optimal muscle functioning so when you see a top athlete like Nadal eating a banana between sets that's why perhaps he should eat some french fries instead.

Reporting comes from ABC News and it's about the former president and how allegedly reckless he has been. Reckless, again, allegedly beyond keeping highly classified documents at his Florida club in plain view for all to see. Here's the lead paragraph of the story from ABC News. His website. Months after leaving the White House, former President Donald Trump allegedly discussed potentially sensitive information about U.S. nuclear submarines with a member of his Mar a Lago club, an Australian billionaire who then allegedly shared the information with scores of others, including more than a dozen foreign officials, several of his employees and a handful of journalists, according to sources familiar with the matter. The ABC story identifies the billionaire as Anthony Pratt and says the FBI and federal prosecutors have interviewed him at least twice this year. In those interviews. Again, according to ABC sources, Pratt told prosecutors he struck up a conversation with the former president during a meeting at Mar a Lago in April of 2021. Quoting from the report, Pratt told Trump he believed Australia should start buying its submarines from the United States, to which an excited Trump leaned toward Pratt as if to be discreet, then told Pratt two pieces of information about U.S. submarines, the supposed exact number of nuclear warheads they routinely carry, and exactly how close they supposedly can get to a Russian submarine without being detected, end quote. ABC further reported that in subsequent emails and conversations, Pratt described what he heard to at least 45 others, including six journalists, 11 of his companies, employees, ten Australian officials, and three former Australian prime ministers. Sources tell ABC that a Mar a Lago employee told investigators that Pratt began telling people within minutes of his conversation with the 45th president. The same sources say this employee told investigators he was, quote, bothered and quote, shocked unquote, to hear that the former president had provided such seemingly sensitive information to a non-U.S. citizen. Just before airtime, a Trump spokesperson put out a statement that reads, These illegal leaks are coming from sources which lack proper context and relevant information. The Department of Justice should investigate the criminal leaking instead of perpetrating their baseless witch hunts while knowing that President Trump did nothing wrong, has always insisted on truth and transparency, and acted properly according to the law. The New York Times has more on this as well tonight, Maggie Haberman on the byline. She's their senior political correspondent, our political analyst, and the author of Confidence Man The Making of Donald Trump and the Breaking of America. Also joining us, is former Defense Secretary William Cohen. CNN military analyst and retired Army Lieutenant General Mark Hertling. And rounding out the panel, CNN senior legal analyst Leonnig. So, Maggie, what more have you learned from your reporting? We confirmed what ABC reported, Anderson, which is that Trump had this conversation with Mr. Pratt, who was a member of Mar a Lago not long after leaving office. This was a conversation in which Trump supposedly revealed a couple of pieces of sensitive information. Now, you know, it's not clear exactly what Trump said. We know that you know, according to ABC, it was specifics about capabilities and about the distance that the submarines can go and how close they can get in certain cases. This is not it doesn't appear he showed a document to this gentleman, but I don't know for prosecutors that that matters, because our understanding is he is among the trial witnesses who prosecutors have listed as possible, people they will call. And what they would likely use him for is to establish a pattern of Trump being loose with sensitive information and the government's secrets. So he might be called he is among dozens of people who might be called. And this list stretches back through the White House years, because, Anderson, as you know and as we've reported, as CNN has reported, Trump has a history of allegedly talking about classified information or putting out classified information. There was an infamous Oval Office meeting with two Russian officials where he is said to have spilled some sensitive information that upset Israeli officials. He tweeted out a classified picture of an Iranian launch site, I think it was in 2019. You know, this is something he's done for a while. This is the kind of behavior that added to why President Biden cut off Trump's briefings, that ex-presidents get too sensitive information from classified briefings because according to the current president, you know what? What could happen other than that, Trump would slip up and say something. Secretary Cohen, what's your reaction to this report? It's not surprising. I know it's been validated completely. But let's just look at his history. As Maggie just pointed out, his history is he has very little concern about national security interests, especially if it affects our military and our civilian population. He's given away secrets in the past. He will do so in the future. In this case, he's being given the benefit of the doubt. How much more evidence do we need of his misbehavior in terms of attacking our institution? The military thinks those who give life and limb for service to the country are losers and suckers. You start in the intelligence community under the bus in Helsinki. Everything he has done has been to undermine respect for this country of ours. So we're watching the slow or even rapid dissolution of democracy under his hands. He's doing it day after day. This is just one more example of why we should never vote to allow him to get his hands on classified information in the future. He shouldn't be anywhere near the Oval Office ever. General, you know, the capabilities of America's nuclear subs, there, how proximity. Proximity they can get to an adversary subs. How valuable would information like that video be for an adversary or to people in the defense industry? Yeah, what I'd say, Anderson, is all the classified information is provided to those only with a need to know. And every president needs to know a lot of stuff to help them in decision-making. But that need to know also comes with a requirement not to disclose if he was truly talking about capabilities, as may be said, about the nuclear part or the sea bass part of our nuclear triad. I would suspect, and I don't know this for sure, that they are at the higher levels of security clearances either. Top secret is code word when you're talking about the nuclear force that puts the country and as the secretary said, it puts servicemembers in harm's way when he's giving up capabilities. And one other thing I'd add to that, if this allegiance didn't occur and it seems that it did, this is just one incident that's being reported. How many other times at Mar a Lago or one of his golf courses has he leaned into somebody and put other secrets in our citizens in danger because he's giving up other secrets? That's the thing that concerns me the most. I mean, the ABC report says that this billionaire, the Australian billionaire, went and talked to other people very quickly and that FBI, federal investigators have talked to him. Diligence that is not part of the special counsel's are not the charges that they brought. But the number two trend is going to spread it just like everybody else will when they have a rumor they've heard they have inside information. Look how important I am. I'm close to it.
