In the Spirit of Service


Recently Mandi and I have had the pleasure of getting to know the folks over at Gateway Organic Farms in Clearwater.  The experience we have had through selfless service has been amazing.  The calm and peace that getting back to our roots brings is priceless.  We have come to realize that it is important for everyone to take a step back from the hustle and bustle of daily life and notice the simple yet beautiful things we take for granted.  Here are some samples from the farm that we were blessed to use in a simple, earthy, and robust salad.  

Daikon radish, arugula, mizuna, and red mustard greens.  This is a  spicy mixture, full of  peppery, wasabi goodness

The greens composed in a salad with some roasted walnuts, baby san marzano tomatoes, and a great vinaigrette.  I was too lazy to make my own vinaigrette but this brand turned out to be a delicious pairing with the salad.

This portion of the meal was not from the farm.  We had some delicious imported brie and jazz apples that needed to be eaten.  This complimented the salad and rounded out our vegetarian dinner.
