Food Trucks and Pizzas

Last weekend was the Local Food Festival in Boston!  While there were some great local food options that we sampled, they all came with a price, literally - what happened to free food??  So, like a moth to a flame, we were drawn to the food trucks... 

Go Fish - Cody had some kind of corn meal battered oysters that he loved

Grilled Cheese Nation - We all tried different kinds of gourmet grilled cheeses, with varying ingredients and Iggy's organic bread, YUM

And of course...after you've stuffed your face with food-truck food, what better to do then continue eating by hosting a family pizza party?

Some light reading in between meals

We've been wating to cook with figs for a while and this seemed like the perfect opportunity, espcially since they are now in season

Whole wheat pizza with sliced figs, carmelized onions, goat cheese and grape tomatoes

The Chef
