So this year I am going to try to eat locally, as much as possible. And last night's dinner was an example.
I had a radish salad, adapted lightly from Local Flavors, by Deborah Madison. Sliced radishes, arugula, mixed lettuce, chives, and local cheese. With a roasted chicken (from the same people who made the cheese). And dessert? Yogurt (with cherry jam). And I realised upon finishing, the whole meal was local food, apart from the cherry jam.
The difficult thing about trying to eat locally is carbs. Because being gluten-free and getting healthy carbs can be a challenge...and the gluten-free stuff generally comes from a distance. So I'll never be a true locavore because I need my carbs!
