In addition to providing programs and services for our Veterans and their families, VSSA would like to introduce guest bloggers whose posts will enhance your VSSA experience. Our first guest is Camilla M. Mann from ‘Culinary Adventures with Cam’. Her recipes will inspire you to look for healthy, local and creative options for your culinary adventures. Enjoy!

Culinary Adventures with Cam
May 16, 2012

Welcome to my inaugural post as a guest blogger for VSSA. One thing I plan to focus on through these columns is seasonal eating. Eating what is in season - and local - is a fantastic way to ensure that you are eating the freshest, and therefore, most nutritional, foods available to you. And since this weekend marks the 53rd Annual Artichoke Festival in Castroville, I decided to write about artichokes.

I was recently interviewed for an article in the Monterey County Weekly as a 'Choke Artist, a home chef who uses the edible thistle in both sweet and savory dishes. The article appeared on May 3rd, 2012 and their food blog featured three of my recipes.

Today, I'd like to share one of the recipes with you because the main ingredients are so timely - commercial salmon season just opened so you'll be able to find fresh catch in many local markets and artichokes are in full bloom!
