Zucchini Salad

With Canada Day around the corner, many communities get together to celebrate (block parties, family gatherings, picnics, neighborhood patio parties, etc) . This salad is the perfect to make and take.

• 1 small Romaine lettuce head
• 1 small Boston lettuce head
• 3 medium zucchini, washed, slice thinly
• 1 cup sliced radishes
• 1/2 cup seedless grapes, sliced in half

Wash, dry and chill greens. In a large bowl, toss the zucchini, radishes and grapes. Refrigerate, covered for at least an hour.

When ready to take, tear the romaine and lettuce into bite sized pieces and add to the vegetable bowl.

Add the garlic dressing (follows) and toss the salad until everything is well coated. (Don’t over drench with the dressing).

Cover, and away you go. With all the other foods that will grace the table, there won’t be anything left over.

Dressing

• 1/4 cup salad oil
• 3 tbsp. balsamic fig vinegar
• pinch of salt
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• pinch of freshly ground pepper

Whisk until well combined. Store in the refrigerator until ready to use.
