Sugar Shack at Flying Mouse Salad
We are so blessed to have Flying Mouse Farm right down the street from the restaurant. They provide us with vegetables and meat throughout the year, but their maple syrup is really something special. Spinach and spring greens are tossed with Somerdale Champagne cheddar, a new cheese we adore, crisp apple slices, savory granola and a warm maple mustard dressing.

Organic Sandwich Version II
Ok...take a deep breath. Remember, change is good. What started out as a sandwich we made for ourselves after a long hard day, turned into a Winds staple. Alas, times have changed, though not our love of a great cheese sandwich on our beloved wheat bread. White cheddar layered with avocado spread, roasted marinated tomato, cucumber slaw, pickled red onion, micro greens and, of course, sunflower seeds. Served with dressed greens and chips.

Red Lentils with Raita and Honey Almond Green Sauce
This recipe comes to us via one of our favorite customers. She found this recipe in the New York Times and passed it on to us. We’ve tweaked it a bit and added Winds condiments. The red lentils are seasoned with carrots, cumin, cilantro and lemon making a brightly flavored spring dish. Served with rice and steamed greens.

The Henry Burger
This is a very special burger for a very special someone. Our youngest son, Henry, is no longer a teenager. I know it is hard to believe, but he’s twenty and still loves the Winds’ burgers, so in honor of this amazing young man, here’s a custom birthday burger. Locally raised ground beef from Orion Organics is cooked on a hot griddle placed on a brioche bun and topped with bacon marmalade, cheddar spread and cucumbers. Served with extra fries showered with grated Parmesan... absolutely Henry style! (Please no omissions or substitutions on this dish.)
