About a month ago, I did something that was both exciting and a little scary. I gave my very first solo cooking demonstration. Normally, when I make food in front of people, I have Scott standing right there, prepared to jump in with a quick quip or ask a question that will keep me talking. To add to the difficulty of the day, I didn't know what I would be making until I got there. The event was sponsored by The Food Trust for Buy Fresh, Buy Local Week and so what they did was drop off a box of fresh produce and when I showed up, I had to figure out what to do with it.
The picture you see above was a bed of greens, topped by a marinated salad of green beans, halved grape tomatoes, onions, basil and goat cheese. Big thanks to Angie, for adding her gorgeous picture of that delicious salad to the Slashfood Flickr pool.
