The menu

My 4-course Middle Eastern-like vegetarian meal will highlight “Coconut Yogurt.” I’m looking forward to sharing with you the diversity of this somewhat-new product, I’ll use it in both sweet and savory dishes. It’s a great replacement for those who want to avoid meat and dairy products.

Roasted beet, carrot and ginger soup in coconut yogurt
