Michelle's pick: FRESH GREENHOUSE VEGGIES
Koornneef Produce is a distributor of locally grown greenhouse vegetables that we can enjoy almost all year round. Their cucumbers, tomatoes and peppers are main ingredients in this all-time staff and customer favourite.
Michelle's Awesome Salad
This recipe is a true customer favourite! When made with fresh Koornneef veggies, it's almost as tasty as if you made it during the peak of harvest.
INGREDIENTS:
3-4 sweet peppers (colourful mix)
1 tomato
1 cup cucumber
1 avocado (can substitute mango, if preferred)
1/2 medium red onion
1 cup Edamame beans
1 cup of mixed beans
1/2 bunch fresh cilantro, chopped
juice of 1 lemon
1 tsp. coarse salt
1/2 tsp. fresh pepper
Dice peppers, tomato, cucumber, avocado and red onion into 1/2 inch cubes and place in a large mixing bowl. Do not mix salad until all ingredients are in the bowl. Add Edamame beans, mixed beans, fresh lemon juice, chopped cilantro, salt and pepper. Toss lightly until mixed thoroughly. Serves 4-6.
Tip: We now have Edamame beans in our freezer section in Huntsville. Grown and hand-picked from the Shabatura farm, they are cleaned and ready to eat. Get your fix from last year's harvest - we plan to grow even more this year!
