The flavors of this salad are a perfect combination of sweet and savory, with a refreshing and bright burst of flavor in every bite.

sweet potatoes, grilled chicken and strawberry salsa
This Grilled Chicken and Sweet Potatoes with Strawberry Salsa recipe is not only delicious but also nutritious. The grilled chicken is marinated in a simple blend of olive oil, garlic, and lemon juice, while the sweet potatoes are roasted until crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, providing a perfect balance of flavor and texture.

asparagus and strawberry salad
This salad is light and refreshing. A perfect dish for spring celebrations. Asparagus is a springtime vegetable that is low in calories and high in fiber, vitamins, and minerals.

Making the most of sweet and savory versatility of turnips, the star of this dish is the roots and greens. Adding fresh grated apple and shredded turkey adds full body flavor without adding calories. his light dish could also be made vegetarian without the turkey by substituting apple cider for broth or vegan with your favorite butter alternative.

This sweet take on a traditional deviled egg is a great way to celebrate our farm fresh eggs. Eggs are a simple starting place to get creative with your favorite flavors. In this case, fresh apples, local honey and a touch of cinnamon for an almost apple pie flavor.
roasted broccoli and smashed root veggies
This vegan take on a winter staple takes advantage of fresh broccoli that grows well through our NC winters and is flexible enough to go with any root veggie. This dish is full of texture and flavor. Root vegetables make it filling enough to be a main dish of it’s own right. Using cashew “cheese” instead of parmesan makes it fully vegan. If you eat meat or dairy you can mash the roots traditionally with cheese or butter and eat this as a side dish for any savory or sweet meat dish.
orecchiette pasta with turnips and kale
Kale and turnips are both staple winter crops and compliment each other nicely in this simple pasta dish. With plenty of butter, cheese and caramelizing this recipe is rich and flavorful. Turnips provide great umami on their own but also provide great backup to chicken or pork if you want to add those to this recipe.
apple, sweet potato, kale and quinoa salad
Adding roasted sweet potatoes and warm quinoa to this salad makes it feel just right for the cold days of winter. The apple and kale round out the flavor and nutritional balance. A great base salad it can be customized with more toppings or meat with whatever you have in the fridge.
roasted potatoes with ricotta and microgreens
The perfect recipe for small potatoes, this simple baked potato is best topped with just ricotta and fresh microgreens for a lightly flavored but filling side dish. Remember, all our produce is hyper-local and grown with good for the earth best practices, so even potatoes can be a healthy and new year’s resolution friendly option!

beet and pear salad
We love a good winter salad, this one uses beets and pears (or apples) that are abundant this season for a fresh crunch and with walnuts and goat cheese a well rounded flavor. Hope you enjoy the festive colors of this lighter meal in between or alongside holiday dinners.
broccoli apple soup
Broccoli loves the cooler weather as we roll from fall into winter here in NC. Pairing broccoli with apple may be surprising, but it turns out to be a really creamy and delicious soup. The apples sweet and tartness blend to hide away any bitterness the broccoli might have and help make the soup creamy with no cream at all.
