Its brought much needed rain, chill in the air and the inspiration for hearty comforting food. Tonight we roasted a turkey breast with fresh herbs and fall apples. Sides were Castroville artichokes and roasted potatoes. But I think my favorite part of the meal was a fresh salad made with Farmer's Market veggies and strawberries.
Ingredients for 2 servings:
2 cups fresh mixed greens
1 tbls minced shallot
8 basil leaves, chopped or sliced into thin pieces
EVOO & aged balsamic vinegar to taste
Salt & pepper to taste
Strawberries, quartered
Crumbled blue cheese or whatever cheese you have in the fridge
Chopped walnuts
Mix the greens, shallot, basil, EVOO, balsamic vinegar, salt and pepper in a bowl. Divide among two bowls. Top with strawberries, cheese and nuts.
Thats all there is to a bowl of Fall deliciousness.
You could make a meal out of it by adding chicken or salmon.
What are you going to do with the Fall harvest?
