Dreaming of Simplicity

Eat Fresh, we all know the commercials for a sandwich company touting their anything but actually fresh sandwiches. The real fresh stuff was on my table tonight. Here was our menu.

Chicken purchased from the local butcher roasted with spices, roasted garlic, and lime.

Beets from the farmers market with Vermont butter

Rainbow heirloom variety carrots and carrots from our farm share with peas from our garden and edible pod peas from the farm

New potatoes from the CSA share smashed with with chives from our garden, vermont cheddar cheese, Vermont butter, bacon, and sour cream

 Everything was fresh and flavorful. The plates looked colorful, healthy, and appealing. I have to say that fresh beets although messy to prepare are so much better than those canned things.

I do my best to eat as locally as I can. I do not have a garden, but I go to 2 different farmer's markets weekly and purchase straight from the farmers. I am challenging myself to not eat fast food anymore and this may help me even more. The meals you are preparing sound delicious!
Do you enjoy living in Vermont? I heard it's a very liberal state. Have you been to Ben & Jerry's and/or Stonyfield Farms tours?
Take care!
Blessings,
