The Holiday Season brings with it the joy (and or the dilemma) of holiday entertaining for family and friends. Have no fear! Menu planning can be really fun when you have some inspiration! So come and be inspired by the the up-coming seasons winter greens and fruits-a-plenty. I have been invited to share my salad crafting skills with you by teaching a few “Artisan Salad Crafting” classes at some of our favorite local grocery markets here in the Twin Cities. Join me in crafting a variety of gorgeous, delicious, and most important, “healthy” holiday salads. Whether you are presenting a salad to a crowd or creating an intimate holiday meal, crafting a beautiful salad is an art well worth learning and sharing! Check out the up-coming schedule below. I hope to see you there!
