the Eat Local Challenge. I had all intentions of doing a majority of the shopping at the Ferry Plaza Farmer’s Market when I got an emergency phone call and had to leave. Too bad as I was really getting into it. I did get about 15% of the things we needed for this weeks menu but had to get the rest at Whole Foods. 90% of the groceries were local and/or organic.
A weeks worth of groceries including a cocktail party menu and two bottles of sustainable wine from the Monterrey coast to have on hand at home came up to $177.00
This week’s menu will include:
Cocktail Party – smoked salmon dip w/crudites, fig & blue cheese tart, lavash crackers & tapenade, & sweet meringue nuts.
Cream of Fennel Soup
Lennox Biscotti
Baked Eggs with pancetta
Duck fried potatoes
Chicken & dumplings
