A big bowl meal that's greater than the sum of its parts.

When the haul from your farm is in high gear, here’s a delicious answer to all that abundance. Infinitely customizable, this is great with just about anything you throw at it. Start with a big bowl of cooked rice vermicelli and toss in a good variety of tender greens, aromatics in the form of herbs, shallots, and green onions, dress it all with a nutty, creamy vinaigrette and top it off with crunchy peanuts. If you’ve got leftover chicken, steak, pork, or tofu in the fridge, bring it on!
