One Local Summer :: Week #1

This is my first post for the One Local Summer Challenge. The premise is to make one meal per week out of entirely local ingredients, except for salt, pepper, spices and oil. I try to eat 80% local most of the time anyways, so I thought that this would be easy. Ha! With the long winter behind us, we're experiencing a bit of a delayed growing season here in New England, so my first post for this challenge is a tad boring.

I present to you - a local salad.



Local items:

Mixed Greens and radishes from Nelson Farm
Maple covered walnuts from Sugar Momma's
Spicy Basil from my porch
Honey (in the dressing) from J. and L. Frink

Non-local items:

Salt
Pepper
Olive Oil


Simple and refreshing!
