Well, last week was a busy time with the holiday weekend and I completely forgot to post my Week 4 OLS meal! For our Independence Day holiday, we had pulled pork bar-b-que from our very own M4-D Ranch Pastured Pork, homemade cole slaw and homemade apple cobbler from apples in my backyard. Not local - the bread, baked beans and bar-b-que sauce my mom contributed to our delicious holiday meal.
For our Week 5 OLS meal this week, we had a very light dinner tonight since the temperatures have been in the mid to upper 90's with a heat index around 110-115 for the past few days. We are hoping for some rain this evening to cool things off a bit.
Anyway, back to our light meal for the evening. It was just me, my 6 year old and my 2 year old daughters, so we had a quick dinner of boiled new potatoes with butter and a stir-fry of our own M4-D Ranch Round Steak. The new potatoes were from our local farmer's market and the butter came from a dairy within 100 miles. The round steak came from my freezer - courtesy of our very own pastured beef. For dessert we had fresh apple slices from our backyard apple tree. Nothing fancy, but nice, easy and light to finish off a sweltering day!
