In the midst of working on my day job, catering, I was desperate to find something to post today. Regular readers may notice that I've been a bit more disciplined about posting here - three times a week. Nevertheless, I hit a wall today after hitting one snag after another in the kitchen. I was so glad then to come across this video that features our work at Green City Market this summer. The recipe, Pear Squared Salad, can be found here.

Cute video! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThanks Mrs. Q for watching. I hear that BlogHer food was a lot of fun. I'm sorry to have missed it.
ReplyDeleteMaybe a good recipe for Club Sprouts would be something with sprouts in it . . . just a thought.
