Sustainable Feast in The Garden of Eden

It is another great day in the Garden of Eden, and we are giving thanks for more than enough of everything in this abundant life of freedom!

We made a delicious feast for our volunteers today on the rocket stoves of our sustainable outdoor kitchen! As usual, there was more than enough food for everyone, and we are happy to share our abundance with you!

Today we made a colorful feast!

We made pan fried chicken, orange ginger beets with green beans, potatoes, sweet potatoes, and beet greens with goat cheese, a fresh salad, and a hearty spiced applesauce!

We started with our huge daily salad with lots of bright veggies! We piled grated carrots, sliced bell peppers, juicy red tomatoes, chewy raisins, crunchy sliced almonds, hemp seeds, and creamy sliced avocados on top of crisp mixed greens.

For a side, we peeled, sliced, and boiled beets, and tossed them with lightly sautéed green beans in a light orange and ginger sauce. We sprinkled it with sliced almonds and more orange zest for fresh pop of flavor.

We also filled a Dutch oven with sliced sweet and regular potatoes, onions, and garlic. We lightly steamed them, poured in a little cream, and added chopped beet greens. When the veggies were soft, we added delicious, tangy, creamy dabs of goat cheese!

For today's main dish for our carnivores, we lightly breaded thin pieces of white meat chicken in a mixture of flour and herbs, then we pan fried them in hot olive oil until crispy.

We prepared a small bowl of raw chopped garlic and herbs in olive oil. Just a drizzle adds a potent burst of flavor as well as powerful antimicrobial compounds to keep the body healthy!

Lastly, we made a spiced applesauce to serve with the chicken or as another side. This chopped apples simmered with cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and allspice along with some dried blueberries and pecans for extra crunch!

It was a wonderful spread with plenty of food for all our volunteers!

Delicious, wholesome, AND sustainable food shared in good company makes for a fantastic meal!

Food is important, and we hope to inspire people to really take time to eat, enjoy it, and share it with someone you love. We also hope to inspire more and more sustainable practices in regards to food!

We do all of our cooking over fire, using wood that was otherwise destined to end up in a landfill! This is one of our rocket stoves in action - we built it by hand out of dirt.

Food is an honored & elemental part of our daily life in community. You can learn more about our unique, intimate, and super sustainable relationship with food here!
