Our 100 mile meal: Dinner


We had a delicious dinner tonight. It consisted of stuffed quahogs, harvested and cooked by our neighbor less than half a mile away. You could taste the sea salt in them. They were delicious

We also had some yummy sauteed greens. We knew at a certain point we'd begin to get sick of a certain vegetable during its season. Well, that time has come, with greens. We have enough greens in our house to feed an army. We've got lettuce, arugala, chard, bok choy, tzoa choy, many other things ending in choy. Our CSA bags contain so many green leafy objects that we can no longer match the name to the object. We wish that the greens would come again in august, but instead with have to stuff ourselves with them now. 

On top of the sauteed greens and stuffed quahogs, we had turkey chili. The chili contained ground turkey from Vermont. It was spicy and very very good.

However, not everything can be 100 miles, for dessert we had some yummy cake pops. We know that the cakepops don't qualify as 100 mile food, but we did make them ourselves so that counts for something. Right?
