Weekends are where I can take my Foodie moments at a leisurely pace. Last Friday, I ventured to Central Market with a focus on CLEAN and/or LOCAL produce.
In my shopping cart, I placed red and yellow tomatoes, along with brussel sprouts and okra-all grown in Texas. Among other items on my list, I chose a raw blue cheese.
Knowing my boyfriend would come home hungry, I made a treat to snack on while we prepared our dinner.

I sliced the red and yellow tomatoes, picked fresh basil from our potted herb garden, drizzled Texas olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Next, I crumbled the raw blue cheese on top sprinkling a touch of sea salt and cracked pepper to finish the dish.
What I liked about the dish was how simple, clean, fresh it was, and my conscience felt good about using mostly local ingrediants. Preparing good food doesn't have to be tasking.
Sometimes it is important to keep it simple. Eating clean & participating inNDBC has really made a difference! Looking forward to the next boot camp session that will begin next week! Until next time! - Jen B.
