I always get asked advice about what kind of appetizer to serve before a big holiday meal. People are always surprised when I say “veggie crudite”. But if you think about it, you don’t want your guests to be full before they get to the big meal! That being said you do want to be sure and get the best possible quality produce and your local farmers market is always the best bet. I just love these nanteen carrots I can find at the Wednesday morning Santa Monica Farmer’s Market. They are so sweet and colorful.
