Merry Meatless Monday!
Did you see last night’s Mad Men? We didn’t, because we were busy working at Cary’s Pocket Community Garden, and grilling up some grub for the next week. There was, however, a fascinating story on NPR today about an original Madison Avenue ad man, Sid Lerner, and his Meatless Monday campaign.
Sid is the man behind the memorable “Don’t Squeeze The Charmin” ads, among many others. Like Sid and other people in the article say, we love to eat meat, but we prefer to eat it in moderation, and to know that it has been raised conscientiously, and if at all possible, locally. Here’s the article.
We’re definitely looking forward to trying the Quinoa-Stuffed Zucchini Boat recipe mentioned in the article. For this week’s Meatless Monday, we’ll be having one of our classic go-to summer meals: Grilled Marinated Vegetable Sandwiches. The sandwiches are that much better when we add Rosemary and Garlic goat cheese from In The Red Farm and Dairy, which we always get at the State Farmer’s Market.
