Gypsy Dinner 6-27-15

I always think of my little laboratory of a kitchen as a gypsy wagon. There are pots and pans hanging from the walls, colorful chachkis from adventures here and there, and small natural wonders collected from the lakes and forests line my shelves. This summer I'm growing a lot of vegetables, and we will definitely have some basil and arugula by this time in June to share... maybe fresh snap peas! This menu combines the best of early summer with the cuisines of North Africa, the Middle East, and Eastern Europe. The summer season has begun, let's toast to outdoor dining! Check it out and spread the word!

Green lentil soup with peas, spinach, caramelized carrots, roasted cumin and coriander, cilantro, fresh lemon
