Can't stand any more greens? You can make paper out of the vegetables in your garden. Here’s how, from ehow.com:
1. Thinly slice the vegetables. The slices can be 0.5 cm to 0.2 inch thick. You can choose from a variety of vegetables like carrot, cucumber, squash, ginger root, potato, radish, turnip or beet.
2. Arrange the slices to form a thin layer between two sheets of tissue paper. Overlap the slices so that there are no open spaces.
3. Place the sheets of vegetable and tissue in a microwave. They should lie flat on the base of the microwave.
4. Put some microwave safe heavy object like a glass baking dish on the sheets. This will prevent the vegetable parchment paper from curling.
5. Heat on high for 1 minute. This will leave the tissue paper wet. Thicker slices of vegetable will need more heat.
6. Remove the sheets from the microwave, and let the vegetable layer breathe for a minute. Replace the wet tissue paper with fresh paper.
7. Repeat steps 3 to 6 until the tissue paper is almost dry.
8. Replace the tissue paper once more. Place the sheets between layers of old newspaper. Let the whole thing stand for a few days on a flat surface with some weight on it.
9. Replace both the tissue paper and newspaper once daily until the vegetable parchment paper is completely dry.
