Try Our Simple 420 Recipe for a Tomato, Peach, and Whipped Purple Haze Goat Cheese Salad
As many know, I prefer to consume my cannabis through alternative methods rather than smoking. For this recipe, I’ve chosen a simple way to infuse it using Proof Extracts Bazilion drops. These drops offer a subtle yet deliciously terpene-rich flavor that can easily be incorporated with just a few drops on your salad or any recipe. This recipe can also be made without cannabis for any friends who don’t consume. Instead try a “smokable pairing”. I have a few suggestions: Super Lemon Haze, known for its beautiful citrus notes; Jack Herer, celebrated for its delightful spicy and herbal nuances; or Wedding Cake, recognized for its sweet and peppery undertones. For those wishing to smoke, I would choose a strain enriched with linalool, limonene, and pinene. These terpenes bring forth an aromatic bouquet of florals (reminiscent of dried lavender in the goat cheese), citrus (akin to lemon juice and lemon zest in this recipe), and tangy notes (complementing the goat cheese’s tanginess with fennel and the delicate spice of fresh basil). This infusion enhances the overall sensory experience of the dish. With a thoughtful strain selection, the right cannabis variety can elevate the flavors without overpowering the salad’s delicate charm, ensuring a harmonious and enjoyable culinary adventure. Serves 4 Dressing: 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 1tablespoon white balsamic vinegar 1 tablespoon Dijion mustard ½ teaspoon fresh lemon zest (reserve for whipped goat cheese), plus 2 teaspoons juice Kosher salt and black pepper Salad: ¼ small red onion, very thinly sliced 2 large heirloom tomatoes (about 14 ounces total), cored and cut into 1-inch wedges 2 medium peaches (about 12 ounces), halved, pitted and cut into ½-inch wedges ½ to 1 cup torn basil leaves (optional) Whipped Goat Cheese: 4 ounces soft Cypress Grove Purple Haze goat cheese DOSING: courtesy of Christina Wong Low Dose // 5mg THC per serving: You’ll need 7 drops of Proof Bazillion Drops. 20mg THC total. High Dose // 100mg THC per serving: You’ll need 6 droppers (6ml) of Proof Bazillion Drops. 400mg THC total. 6 tablespoons heavy cream 1 teaspoon lemon zest, finely zested or chopped Step 1 In a large bowl, whisk the olive oil, vinegar, mustard and lemon juice. Season generously with salt and pepper, stir in the red onion and set aside. Step 2 Place red onion in a small bowl, cover with water and soak for at least 10 minutes (to mellow the sharp onion flavor). Then strain and pat dry with a paper towel. Step 3 Crumble the goat cheese into the bowl of a food processor (or with a hand blender) and add cannabis oil. Process until creamy, scraping down the sides of the work bowl as needed, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the heavy cream and lemon zest; process until light fluffy, about 1 minute, scraping the bowl as needed. Transfer to a bowl and season to taste with salt. Step 4 Spread the whipped goat cheese on a large serving platter or in shallow bowl, distributing it evenly using the back of a spoon. Add the tomato wedges, peach wedges and red onion to the dressing and toss to coat. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Place on top of the whipped goat cheese and garnish with torn basil. Serve Cannabis infusion Notes: courtesy of Christina Wong– How to Infuse Food Using a Tincture Chef Jenn recommends using a cannabis tincture to infuse this recipe. Specifically Proof Bazillion Drops, a tincture made with MCT coconut oil that’s extremely potent. Please dose with caution, and err on the side of less. About Proof Bazillion Drops // entire bottle = 1,000mg THC 1 drop = 3mg THC and 3mg CBD Half a dropper (0.5ml) = 33mg THC and 33mg CBD Full dropper (1ml) = 66mg THC and 66mg CBD These drops offer a subtle yet deliciously terpene-rich flavor that can easily be incorporated with just a few drops on your salad or any dish.

Exploring Customized Anti-Inflammatory Chicken Spring Rolls with Sunflower Seed Butter Dipping Sauce
Are you ready to savor a delectable dish that not only tantalizes your taste buds but also takes care of your health? Look no further! As a private chef, I specialize in crafting custom culinary creations that cater to your dietary needs, and today, I’m excited to introduce you to our mouthwatering Anti-Inflammatory Chicken Spring Rolls with Sunflower Seed Butter Dipping Sauce. As a private chef, I understand that everyone’s health and dietary requirements are unique. Whether you’re following a specific eating plan due to allergies, sensitivities, or personal preferences, I am here to transform your dining experience into a flavorful journey that aligns with your wellness goals. The Power of Anti-Inflammatory Ingredients Inflammation is at the core of many health concerns, from chronic pain to digestive issues. Our Anti-Inflammatory Chicken Spring Rolls are designed to combat inflammation and support your overall well-being. Here’s a glimpse of what makes them so special: 1. Chicken Breast: Lean and Protein-Packed Our recipe features tender, boneless, skinless chicken breast, a low-fat protein source that helps rebuild and repair body tissues. It’s a perfect addition for those looking to increase their protein intake without excess fat. And look for brands like Mary’s organic chicken. With NO Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) NO Antibiotics Ever. NO Pesticide Treated Grains. NO Grains Grown with Chemical Fertilizers. 2. Turmeric: Nature’s Anti-Inflammatory Spice Turmeric, with its active compound curcumin, is renowned for its anti-inflammatory properties. I’ve incorporated it into the dipping sauce to infuse these spring rolls with a vibrant, earthy flavor. For more powerful anti-inflammatory benefits, turmeric could be incorporated into the marinade for the cooked chicken. 3. Fresh Veggies: Nutrient-Rich and Fiber-Packed These spring rolls are bursting with colorful, fresh vegetables like shredded carrots, crisp English cucumber, and aromatic cilantro. These veggies not only add a beautiful crunch but also rich in vitamins, minerals, and fiber to promote digestive health. Feel free to add any veggies of your choosing. The Sunflower Seed Butter Dipping Sauce: A Creamy Delight To elevate the flavor profile and maintain the anti-inflammatory theme, I’ve crafted a delectable Sunflower Seed Butter Dipping Sauce. This creamy dip is an excellent source of healthy fats and essential nutrients: 1. Sunflower Seeds: Heart-Healthy Goodness Sunflower seeds provide a dose of heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, vitamin E, and essential minerals like magnesium and selenium. They contribute to a lusciously smooth texture and a slightly nutty flavor. 2. Maple Syrup: Natural Sweetness I’ve sweetened the sauce with pure maple syrup, a natural sweetener that adds a touch of sweetness without refined sugars. It also delivers antioxidants and nutrients like manganese and zinc. 3. Coconut aminos These may be new to you but I highly recommend them. Coconut aminos are much lower in sodium than soy sauce and are a great alternative. A hint of coconut aminos, rice vinegar, and a dash of garlic powder perfectly balances the flavor, resulting in a dipping sauce that complements the spring rolls beautifully.
