STACKED EGGPLANT SANDWICH

The Purple Powerhouse

The Caprese Salad was created after World War I to pay tribute to the colors of Italy.

Eggplant provides a nice bite and flavor for a produce forward sandwich. Great marinated and grilled or breaded & fried. I love to pair with Caprese salad style flavorings & serve it on a nice toasted sourdough bread. Tastes hearty & comforting while enjoying some of the summer ’ s harvest!

A Happy Accident . . .

It is thought that a grower forgot a tray of Crimini & came back to large mushrooms that were fully matured & ready to spore They instead decided to pick & taste them anyways, & thankfully they did, because now we have a wonderful plant-based meat substitute!!
