My Salad

So I have this thing for salads. And not just any salad but a very particular salad that I have created from years of scouring NYC salad bars. Trust me, it works. There's something about the textural differences provided by the crunch of the walnuts, the soft chew of the egg and the flavor differences of the sweet cranberries and salty feta that really make this salad pop on your palate. I had this delectable combination for lunch at an indoor farmer's market/specialty story and knew I had to share my secret. Don't believe me? Try it yourself.

-Few handfuls mesculin lettuce

-1/4 cup dried cranberries

-1 hardboiled egg (chopped)

-3 tablespoons fresh feta cheese

-2 tablespoons corn kernels (cooked)

-1/2 beet (sliced)

-3 tablespoons mandarin oranges

-2 tablespoons walnuts (chopped)

Dress with dressing of choice, (I prefer a nice sesame ginger) and ENJOY!

Warmest Regards,

First Post

Hey there. I'm still struggling with how best to utilize my ever-expanding twitter account centered around natural, organic and wholesome foods and I think one way to progress and reach out in different and exciting ways would be with a shiny new blog. So here I am, blogging about (what else?) food! I'll post my own recipes, great recipes I've tried, restaurant reviews and critiques from my new blog and if you have a restaurant/shop/bakery/sidewalk vendor you'd like me to try in the New York area, feel free to shoot me a tweet @OrganicEats or connect up right here on the blog.

Devotedly Yours,
