I went to an amazing farmer's market this morning, and came home with the true colors of late July! At one booth, I got a big bowl full of tender lettuce leaves and some crisp snow peas. The deep red of freshly picked tomatoes will be awesome against the lettuce in my special, broad, bowl. I will add the Snow Peas, just quickly steamed and cooled, and slices of small, tender cucumber.
Then for fun, the interesting gold of tiny Patty-Pan squash! At the last minute, I will toss with a fresh balsamic-lemon vinaigrette dressing, and top off with croutons made from an amazing Rosemary-Olive Oil bread that I found at a local Artisan Bakery.
Won't it be a wonderful salad!
I will be taking it to dinner at a friends. The best way to socialize! I plan to entertain more this fall, and I am looking for easy but exquisite main dish ideas! So, please send me any you have! I just can't do the same old thing any more!
