Tasty Tuesday Treat #37


When I was first told that I would be traveling to Minneapolis, I have to admit that I was apprehensive.  I was convinced that despite arriving in April, I would be greeted by a blizzard and a dull and dreary environment.  What I found upon landing, however, were picturesque lakes and delicious dining options.  

One of the greatest culinary experiences of my trip took place at Bar La Grassa.  With a counter seat, I watched each signature supper be prepared and was able to learn about the origins of the ingredients.  

Despite the delicious dinner that I was served, I was most intrigued by the Giant White Bean Salad with Pickled Vegetables that was served complimentary.  Determined to save room for the rest of my meal, I planned to only have a taste of the salad.  Two seconds later, the small dish was empty and I was on a mission to find a recipe that would replicate this spectacular side.  

Thankfully Whole Foods came to my rescue with their spin on the salad, allowing me to bring a piece of Minnesota back to NJ!
