Our favorite local greens from Faithfull Farms are blooming, so we’re thrilled to be bringing you this classic layered dandelion greens salad. Dandelion greens are one of our favorite vegetables to work with because of their abundant health benefits and the unique nature of their tapered deep green leaves and tender stems. Their natural bitterness supports the liver, while their high chlorophyll content helps cleanse and alkalize the body. We’ll layer the tender greens with shaved carrot and watermelon radish from Happy Dirt, then top with toasted sunflower seeds. This is a layered salad, so the creamy tahini orange dressing will be on the bottom. The sweetness of the dressing with a hint of mint balances the bitterness of the greens perfectly. You’ll simply empty all the contents into a bowl, mix together and serve. A quart makes enough salad for 3-4 people as a side or for 2 people to have a generous portion as a meal.

Add it to a salad, sandwich or wrap, or simply spoon some onto any GC plate you make this week for extra goodness.

This is our flagship nut butter. It’s not like anything you’ve bought from a store. It’s fresh, decadent, earthy, and incredibly satisfying. It’s made with the perfect ratio of all the most nutritious organic nuts and seeds. No rancid oils or added sugars. Hard to believe that something so nutrient-dense could taste this good. Our favorite way to eat it is on a piece of dark chocolate or right off of the spoon when you need a snack.

We’re bringing you another hemp milk deluxe! We’ll blend organic cherries with ashwagandha, an Ayurvedic herb that’s known for its adaptation healing properties and promoting restorative sleep. If you’ve never had freshly made hemp milk, you’re in for a treat. Hemp milk is considered the best milk alternative for many reasons – it’s high in omega-3 fatty acids, essential minerals and protein while also being low in carbohydrates. And growing hemp is good for the planet, helping to regenerate the soil and purify the air – pretty amazing. Hemp milk has a slightly nutty flavor and a nice light and creamy texture. We lightly sweeten our hemp milk with dates and never add any fillers, gums, or stabilizers like you’ll find in store-bought varieties, so shake it up before pouring. Serve cold with our granola for the perfect breakfast or snack. You can also pour over your cereal of choice, add to oatmeal or use as the base of a smoothie or drink as is. The options are endless.

The first thing to note about this delicious concoction is that it’s caffeinated, but due to the many unique properties of matcha, you’ll feel a calm alertness without the jittery effects you get from coffee or tea. Matcha is a Japanese shade-grown green tea powder that’s loaded with powerful antioxidants, called polyphenols, and many other bioactive compounds with various health benefits, such as improved cognitive function, collagen production and reduced stress. Because matcha green tea plants are grown in the shade, the leaves are very rich in chlorophyll, which naturally supports the detoxification pathways in the body. Matcha even has the reputation of aiding Zen monks in meditation. We’ll balance out the earthy flavor of the matcha with warming spices and cashew milk to create this spectacular beverage for your morning ritual. Warm it up on the stovetop, stirring, or simply shake it up and drink cold. (Hot tip: You could add it to a blender and whizz it up with half a banana to create an even more creamy and sustaining morning affair. This is Lizzie’s new morning obsession.) **We’re upgrading our matcha moving forward to Jade Leaf’s ceremonial grade Teahouse Edition for a more vibrant beverage with a sweeter note and even more nutrition. They work directly with a grower’s collective in Kyoto to offer their premium quality matcha.

We’ve created a divine beverage – energizing, bittersweet, fulfilling. Enjoy sipping in the morning as a better-than-coffee alternative. Cacao powder is loaded with antioxidants and minerals that nourish your body and feed your cells. Reishi mushroom – which grows on the bark of hardwood trees – supports the immune system, improves sleep, and lessens fatigue. To round it out, we’re adding Lion’s Mane – a shaggy white mushroom that grows on decaying hardwoods, such as beech, sycamore and birch trees. While it’s most known for improving cognitive health and enhancing neuroplasticity, Lion’s Mane has many other healing properties which include supporting gut health and reducing inflammation. This triad balances and supports the body so well. We don’t make this drink super sweet, so feel free to add extra sweetener, a dash of maple, a stir of honey, or a scoop of collagen powder for extra oomph. Shake it up then either pour over ice or heat it up on your stove top.

This is our take on the classic Indian dish, aloo gobi – “potatoes and cauliflower”. It originates from the Punjab region, but has become prized throughout the Indian subcontinent. It’s simple, yet so rich in flavor and texture. We’ll roast local Yukon potatoes and cauliflower until they’re slightly crisp and then stir them into the already toasted spices and onions. Then, we’ll add local green beans from Happy Dirt for fresh flavor and crunch and finish it with local cilantro from Red’s Quality Acre and lime. Enjoy cold or reheat gently in a pan on the stovetop and enjoy alongside any of this week’s dishes with a dollop of hummus for good measure.

This dish is comforting and easy to digest and is a go-to starch for every meal you make with your GC order this week. From the organic olive oil to the abundance of fresh cilantro, there’s so much flavor and nutrition in here.
