General kitchen advice

Buy Local Food : As an ‘everything in moderation’ kind of guy, I’d find a strict local food diet fascinating but obsessive and intimidating, says Peter Marks, program coordinator for the Appalachian Sustainable Agriculture Project in Asheville, N.C. He suggests a more gradual approach: Every week or month, replace one food in your diet that’s provided by a big, faraway company with a locally grown food.

Our survival no longer depends on our knowledge of nature's cycles, but there is much to be gained from getting back this lost wisdom. Regardless of technology's advances, the fact remains that food in season is the best. Apples taste better when they haven't been flown half way around the world. And buying in season encourages local producers who, boosted by factors like the rise in farmers' markets, are building a more sustainable food industry.

Ingredients And Procedures

1 x Sweet potatoes

This is really great. Michelle was the first one to mention this last year so she gets full credit (yeah, she's also pretty busy these days) Slice sweet potatoes the long way into around 1/4" (1 cm?) slices. Brush with steak sauce - Lea & Perrins is vegan. Trader Joe's too. Let sit for a little while Place on BBQ (Turn once) The potatoes get that wonderful grill pattern on them too! Buy potatoes that are straight and plump. I've done this with both orange and yellow flesh varietes with good success. You may even be able to use regular potatoes...
