Thank you to everyone who supported and joined us at August's hearty meal!
The menu was turkey salad made with greek yogurt, a fresh and local green salad, steamed corn on the cob, couscous with slivered almonds and currants, and a tofu salad. Dessert was homemade chocolate chip and peanut butter cookies with a special fruit and chocolate pudding truffle made by Richard!
Good company, good food, and good weather made for a successful meal. A special thanks to New Beginnings Farm for supplying the turkey and to When Pigs Fly bakery for all of the bread for sandwiches!
See below for the recipe for the tofu salad. We hope to see you next month on September 10th at 6:30pm!
