Kawartha Lakes Cottage Treat - Naan with Wild Edibles

We were recently blessed with an invitation to spend a few days at Long Beach Cottages and Trailer Park where they are known for great fishing. To our delight, we also discovered Johnny and Sarah do not use any pesticides at the resort, which means the wild vegetation is safe to use in recipes. Here is a delicious recipe we create with a touch of the wild vegetation near the 3-Bedroom Cottage we enjoyed while at Long Beach Cottages and Trailer Resort.
