Will you be my Valentine?

We are really excited when our customers get creative with Field Roast and even more so when we get to share their artistry with other FR fans! Kristina at the Whole Foods in Winter Park, FL sent me these pics of Celebration Roast "Little Nepoleans" as she called them. They are made with 2 thick slices of Celebration Roast cut into heart shapes, and sandwiched together with a tasty filling of roasted zucchini, peppers, and onions, skewered together with a fragrant sprig of fresh rosemary!

Cheers to Kristina and her team for spotlighting Field Roast! They have also been making a "vegan stew" that has been a big hit! This creation has sweet apples and mushrooms stewed together with "Cele Ro" and a mixture of roasted veggies.

I welcome any of you to send in pictures of your Field Roast creations to news@fieldroast.com!
