Wanted to share a quick lunch idea today. Instead of overpaying for something semi "healthy" at a restaurant, why not chop up and throw some delicious foods together for a spectacular tasting lunch that will surely tickle the taste buds?!!! I sent this yummy lunch with my man today. The salad consisted of lettuce, beats, and strawberries from our local farm; raw pumpkin & watermelon seeds; and raw feta cheese. I make my own salad dressing with local black cherry infused balsamic and extra virgin olive oils straight from Italy folks.. it's AMAZING!!!!!! The other bowl is a snack for when he needs a mid-afternoon pick-me-up. I chopped up some locally grown carrots, raw jack cheese, roasted almonds and figs.
Some of the bounty we received this week from the local farm produce pick-up...
These are the raw pumpkin & watermelon seeds we like...
This brand of cheese is a winner! Not only is it raw but this brand does NOT have animal rennet used. What is "rennet" you ask? Well, for those of us who do not eat pork, rennet of any kind whether it is "microbial, animal, enzymes etc." is PORK! Sneaky aren't they? Vegetable rennet is the only kind without pork. Just a little fun fact for you today!
I do hope your day has been lovely. We are packing up and preparing to leave for Kentucky Wednesday to celebrate Passover at the farm. Excited for some more cousin time. Be sure to stay tuned for our Back Hills Farm adventures... until then. Be Bold, Be Strong... @sending-arrows🏹
