Detox Delights

The Chef: Lyndsay

The Menu: Light, savory chickpea cutlets. These delicious cornmeal-based morsels were bursting with chickpeas, red onion, grated zucchini, garlic, and the perfect blend of spices. A beautiful salad made the ideal counterpart with Swiss chard, cabbage, and cucumber, all tossed in a homemade vinaigrette. After an obligatory dash of Parma, this tasty duo didn't stand a chance.

The Goods: After an indulgent Brunch Week (we’re not complaining), this refreshing lunch is just what the VN staff needed. Ms. Lyndsay took a culinary cue from Moira Nordholt, whose 21-day detox program kicks off this week. The lunchtime verdict? If detoxing tastes this good, sign us up. Before we can say good-bye to brunch, we must say congratulations to Humboldt Honey!
