Eating Organic in the Twin Cities
I recently visited my brother Ryan and his wife Janet in Boulder, Co. Ryan writes a blog called The Reluctant Eater which focuses on healthy cooking and eating using real, healthy ingredients. Since my visit, I have gotten really into cooking. I have been making meals from scratch, using only real, organic ingredients. Ryan even asked me to write a guest post for the Reluctant Eater about my newfound passion for cooking.
Anyway, these recent events have got me wondering about opportunities for organic eating in the Twin Cities. I have found a few organic restaurants through Google searching, but would love to hear your suggestions as well. My plan is start going to local organic eateries and sampling a few meals, then posting a short review. So if you have any favorite places eat that focus on organic and/or locally grown ingredients, please let me know.
Also, since my background is in education, I’m curious if anyone knows of any schools in the area (or anywhere really) that focus on organic and/or locally grown foods in their lunches. Many school lunches are notoriously unhealthy, and I think that simply using healthier ingredients in school lunches could make a big difference in the well-being of the students and the planet.
Would you like to see more organic and/or locally grown food in school lunches? Do you think it is feasible to make meals on a large scale (such as at a school) using largely organic/local ingredients?
