Eat Local Breakfast

Hey Local eaters.
I hope everyone is loving the eat local challenge. We are into our 2nd week already and I am feeling great. Now I know that a lot of people had some hesitancy about how they would be able to eat locally for the month. And I am not going to deny it, I had some doubts too. I especially had doubts when our family was assigned the morning meal last weekend at the cabin with the extended family. My husband wanted me to get bisquick to make the waffles but I told him that I wanted to look at Just Local Food and see if there wasn't some local baking mixes we could use instead. He actually pleaded with me to just go and get bisquick. He was so worried that because we were feeding the parents he didn't want the meal to be a bust if the mix turned out to be to "wierd" (his words) "wheaty" or too "whole grainy". But I was committed to doing this meal the right way. And my argument was, as you would agree, I'm sure, that if we can't introduce new local foods to the people we love, which is the whole point of the the challenge, then I wouldn't be holding up my end of the challenge. So I set out and ma so HAPPY to say NAILED IT!

Here was our Menu:
  • Great River Organic Milling Company Buttermilk Mix
  • Eggs, Pepin, WI
  • Milk from Crystal Ball Farms, Osceola, WI
  • Butter from Organic Valley La Farge, WI
  • Raspberries Berries from Wheatfield, Duarnd, WI
  • Strawberries from Jacks Berries Stands around Eau Claire
  • Morning GLory WHipped Cream from De Pere, WI
  • Sausage from Anderson Farms, Arkansaw, WI
  • Bacon from Anderson Farms, ARkansaw, WI
  • Pure Maple Syrup from Barron, WI

Now the Orange Juice was Dole brand but I think all in all we did a Bang-up job and it wasn't hard or to "whole grainy"for anyone. at all.
