Japanese Macaroni Salad-
Similar to classic American macaroni salad but texturally different, made with carrots, cucumber, rice vinegar, imitation crab and kewpie mayo.

Yamitsuki "Addictive Cabbage"-
We tried this salad at the Garden Tap and WOW! It was so delicious! Dressed with toasted sesame oil, rice vinegar, sesame seeds and a little nori, my version will use a few different types of organic cabbage (green cabbage/savoy/nappa).

I wanted to create a menu that would utilize all of the gorgeous summer produce that's happening now, but would also be an easy, comforting meal for those of us that have to get back to a school schedule! What could be better than lasagne made with local, organic veggies?
Summer Vegetable Lasagne -
Roasted summer veggies (organic zucchini, crookneck & pattypan squash, Japanese eggplant, cherry tomatoes) layered with lemon-basil whipped ricotta, fresh pasta sheets & tomato sauce. It will have a little mozzarella & feta sprinkled on top but it won't be loaded with cheese. I want to keep it light and let the vegetable flavor come through.
Samin's Insalata Verde-
Green salad with butter lettuce, romaine, arugula and endive in a dressing made with aged Spanish sherry vinegar, olive oil and wholegrain mustard.

Torta Bertolina-
Classic Italian harvest cake from the Lombardy region- a delicate cake flavored with vanilla, almond & citrus, studded with tiny organic Thomcord grapes.

Summery Spiced Pork Roast with Mango Vinaigrette-
Dry brined Beeler's pork loin rubbed with handmade spice blend of peppercorns, star anis, cumin and coriander seeds. The roast can be served hot or cold, sliced thin & drizzled with mango honey vinaigrette.

Sweet Corn Chowchow & Summer Tomato-
Organic tomatoes and chowchow, a pickled side dish made with Dwelley Farms' organic bicolor corn, chopped cabbage, fresh dill.

Yellow Rice-
Basmati rice with turmeric & coconut milk.

Vegan/Vegetarian Option-
Ratatouille-stuffed organic peppers Ratatouille is a classic Provencal dish of eggplant, zucchini, peppers and tomatoes, roasted separately and then layered & slowly baked with garlic, basil & thyme. It needs no improvement but I will add a touch of coriander seed and ginger, to tie the flavors in to the rest of the menu.

Summer vacation is almost over but grilling season prevails! This menu can be made just as easily with or without a grill, but I am trying to make summertime last as long as possible...

Grilled Shrimp Salad with Romaine Hearts, Avocado and Charred Green Goddess Dressing-
Grilled Shrimp with organic romaine hearts, arugula, avocado, toasted almonds and creamy, smoky Green Goddess dressing. You can grill the romaine if you'd like to: it gets a great flavor when grilled or seared.

Pasta Salad with Tahini and Lemon-
organic cherry tomatoes, corn and roasted zucchini, dressed with tahini, lemon, sesame & sunflower seeds

Peach & Nectarine Cheesecake Parfait-
Organic California August Flame peaches and Autumn Bright nectarines from Home Grown Orchards, layered with cheesecake-yogurt cream and crushed graham crackers.

Greek Meatball Sliders-
Greek turkey meatballs with garlic, chopped parsley, zucchini and spinach, served on a slider bun with lemon dill aioli, pickled sweet peppers and a pinch of arugula. I'm going to season them with the spices that I use for shawarma: some coriander, cumin, turmeric, paprika... so they aren't totally Greek! But oh well.
 
Lemon Pepper Potatoes-
Roasted red potatoes with black pepper, oregano, lemon.

Tomato & Watermelon Salad- 
Organic local Catlin Farm tomatoes and chunks of organic red and yellow watermelon with Persian cucumber, basil, mint, feta. Dressing will be simple: some olive oil, a little honey & balsamic.

Our Rustic Pizza Tart is topped with lots of organic veggies and can be heated in the oven or on the grill. Caesar salad can be grilled as well, if you enjoy grilled romaine. California's stone fruit crop is in full swing and we are able to bring in organic peaches from family-run Burkart Farms for this week's shortcake kit. If you want to go wild on your grill, you could even grill the cake for your dessert :)

I thought it would be fun to try something new for the week of the Fourth so we are making Huli Huli chicken wings, cooked in a Hawaiian style soy-based pineapple BBQ sauce with garlic and ginger. For the sides, I'm thinking organic Brentwood corn from Dwelley Farms and a chilled noodle salad with peanut sauce and summer tomatoes.  

Huli Huli ChickenWings-

Cold Noodles with Tomatoes & Peanut Sauce-
Garnished with cherry tomatoes, cukes, peanuts, crispy shallots & herbs.

This restaurant classic is often called a "Chinese chicken salad" though it's definitely more "Chinese American" in nature :) 

The Salad-
Organic chicken breast and lots of organic summer vegetables: sweet peppers, carrots, cucumber, nappa cabbage, field greens, daikon & tender herbs, all tossed in the classic sesame dressing with a little honey, ginger & soy. Salad is garnished with mandarin oranges, sliced almonds & crispy bean thread noodles.
 
Passionfruit Mango Bars-
Baked in the style of a lemon bar but with handmade mango-passionfruit curd and coconut oatmeal shortbread crust
