SALT's Grilled Local Marinated Lamb with Balsamic Braised Lentils

Colorado's lamb is known through out the USA for its high quality and upholds our focus of souring locally. The lamb has an earthy flavor that goes well with our seasonal vegetables to create rich dishes throughout the winter months. SALT's talented Chef Derek's Grilled Lamb Recipe is just what we need to warm our hearts and bellies in these cold winter months.

Call to Action

To label or not to label, that is the question. Or rather what we label! Big foods is pushing to bar states from requiring labels on food that has genetically engineered ingredients. They are determined to keep the public in the dark about what is going into their food. GE foods would even be allowed to be called "natural". There is overwhelming public opposition to this proposal, but our governments need to hear it from the source. Let your voice be heard and tell Congress what you think about this proposal.
