Recipe of the Day: Mountain Wrap
It all begins with an idea.
We LOVE sharing some of our recipes with you! Come in to try some of our tried and true or recreate them at home!
Today we’re sharing our very popular Mountain Wrap recipe! What is a mountain wrap? Its kinda like a burrito, full of yummy veggies, cheesy, and exactly what you need on your way up or down a mountain. Also a perfect morning meal before a day of rafting- just add a couple scrambled eggs in there first!
1 Tortilla
1/2 Sweet Potato
1/2 A Bell Pepper
1/2 Cup Black Beans
1/4 of an Onion
Handful of Mushrooms
1/2 Cup Shredded Cheese
1 T Sour Cream
1 T Salsa
1/2 Avocado
Salt and Pepper to taste
Dice up your sweet potatoes and pour them in a small pot of boiling water. Let them cook for about 5 minutes. Dice up the rest of your veggies and throw them on the skillet with some butter. Remember to salt and pepper them while they’re still hot! We prefer to use whole ingredients here at the cafe and if you’re vegetarian or vegan, feel free to swap the butter out with some coconut or avocado oil, I promise it wont disappoint.
Once all your veggies are cooked to your liking remove them from the heat and stir them all together. Wipe down your skillet and start heating up your tortilla. Add cheese until melted then remove from heat onto your plate. Add your veggies. Now for the tricky part… starting with one end of the wrap fold down alternate sides and roll gently until all veggies are wrapped up. Kinda like a little blanket am I right?
Take your scoop of Sour Cream, Salsa and 1/2 an avocado and ENJOY!!!
Bon Apetit!
Whats good Marshall?
It all begins with an idea.
Good Morning and Happy Sunday!
I fell in love with Marshall about a year ago. After opening the cafe in March I started to get to know a little more about this sweet little town nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains. From monthly Rodeos to the thigh slapping folks on Friday nights playing bluegrass at The Depot there’s much more to this town than the beautiful landscape. It seems almost everyone here is an artist, musician or creative. Landlords resist the urge to construct big condos and strive to keep our town cozy and focused on our community. The downtown association organizes amazing events like the Mermaid Parade in June, Santa visits at the Courthouse in December and Marshall’s Mardi Gras, aka Marshall-Gras. A quick stroll over the bridge will bring you to the beautiful Capitola Mill. Lovely riverside apartments and an amazing Spa and Sauna. Keep walking and you’ll find yourself on Blannahassett Island.
On the 3rd Saturday of every month you can enjoy live music, food trucks and artists slinging their goods. This coming month we will be joining the fun on the island with our own burgers, hot dogs and pulled pork sammies (with sides and our famous Sweet Tea of course too!). Marshall is huddled between two other lovely towns, Mars Hill and Hot Springs both also worthy of a visit.
Here are some of our favorite places to hang out:
Zumas - Great coffee drinks and they have a piano! And offer lots of live music throughout the month
Mad Co. Pizza - Amazing pizza! They also offer comedy nights or music and a beautiful outdoor view of the French Broad River
Zadies at the Jailhouse - Beautiful riverside patio and historic building (yes it really was a jailhouse!)
Star Diner - Delicious fine dining
Mals - Shoot some pool, play a board game, and great spot for meeting the locals
Sweet Monkey - For all your cakes and sweets catering needs. Now with Keltic Festivals! We’re hoping they do one on the island soon!
Madison Natural Foods - Healthy good food and local farm sourced produce!
Coming for a little shopping too? French Broad Exchange, My Sisters Attic, Main St Comics, Flow Gallery, Penlands, On Your Bike, and Flow Gallery all having lovely options for gifts and local findings.
Next month were excited to announce Movie Nights on the patio! Check our events page for the spooky Halloween movies were showing and stay tuned to hear more about our Halloween plans!
See you in Marshall!!
