sunchoke and arugula salad

This salad is a celebration of vibrant flavors, bringing together Jerusalem artichokes (also known as sunchokes) and peppery arugula, finished off with a sprinkle of savory Parmesan cheese. Despite the name "Jerusalem artichoke," this vegetable is actually a type of sunflower tuber and holds no relation to traditional artichokes. The earthy, nutty taste of sunchokes pairs splendidly with the slight bitterness of arugula, creating a refreshing and wholesome salad. The addition of Parmesan cheese adds a delightful umami touch, resulting in a simple yet satisfying dish that's both flavorful and nutritious.

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.
