ELC, Day 7 Menu



Breakfast:
Scrambled local eggs
non-local Yves veggie sausage patties
Rye toast (from local bakery, Strawberry Moon)

Lunch:
Me:
Tofu "egg" salad sandwich (local tofu, celery, onion, garlic and dill; non-local mayo, mustard, relish, turmeric) on local rye bread

Husband: Leftover swiss chard lasagna

Both: Disappearing zucchini orzo (made with veggie pasta shells instead of orzo). A tasty way to use up 2 zucchini and 1 summer squash!

Dinner

Chicken fried tofu steak (local tofu)
Good gravy
Blanched green beans (local) with local butter and garlic
Tomato (backyard), mozzarella (address is local), and (backyard) basil salad, drizzled with non-local EVOO and balsamic reduction. Oh god.
Homemade rosemary butter biscuits (rosemary from the backyard, local butter, all other flours, leavenings and salt non local).

As an aside, this is what happens when you let a 14 month old loose while you and your significant other are too tied up in a discussion of the ethics of carnivory (inspired by Animal, Vegetable, Miracle) to notice what he's up to:

Luckily, he didn't eat any part of it, just piled it all neatly on the floor. Blargh.
