Bluegrass Farmers Market

Today is the start of a new, fun feature at the Bluegrass Farmers' Market...it's Recipe Wednesday! Each Wednesday we'll post a recipe that hopefully will give you some ideas on how to prepare or use the items available at the market. Okay, I know that the market does not open until the 13^th but I wanted to see how this will work out before the market opens. So here goes...

My mom thought that eating lettuce would make her nose twitch like a rabbits nose. She hated green salads so I didn't get to enjoy more than an occasional head of iceberg lettuce tossed with some lemon juice and oil. My nose did not twitch and I have become a lover of all things crispy, crunchy and green! :) I have semi refined my childhood recipe to include other wonderful things. This recipe is not set in stone because honestly, I do not measure...I am a dumper! lol   If you think it needs more of something please feel free to adjust to your taste. This is a great start. :)

Dijon Honey Lemon Dressing

2 tablespoons lemon juice

2 tablespoons honey

1 clove garlic, finely chopped

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

1/4 cup olive oil

pepper

kosher salt

Whisk everything together, salt and pepper to taste and pour over salad greens.

If you have a recipe that you would like to share with us, please do so by emailing it to fromourfarms@aol.com We'd love to hear from you and if you have a story to share about the recipe, please include it too!
