• 1 cup Chef Garden Micro Celebration Blend
• 5 tbsp Honey Vinaigrette

Toss with fingers and divide equally between 8 plates.  Next, place one thinly sliced piece of salmon rolled to look like a flower on top of greens.  Garnish with one leaf of Chefs Garden finger bowl Lemon Geranium.

Note: Pisco is a grape liqueur which is distilled from hot Quebranta grape must which was originally produced in Peru in the early 17th Century.  It is available in most liqueur stores.

Serve and Enjoy!
