The other night it was too hot to cook, so I made a nice fresh salad. I bought lettuce at the store, but the tomatoes, peppers (I used Anaheim peppers), onion, and garlic were all locally-grown and came from the Farmers Market. I love tomatoes that don't taste like cardboard! Same for the other produce!
The peppers had a little kick to them, but when combined with the Italian dressing (I was too lazy to mix olive oil, vinegar, and spices that night), were even more awesome.
I might do the same thing tonight. If I do, though, I might mix my own dressing. On the other hand, I may chop up everything but the lettuce and have a nice fresh salsa. Mmmmmm....!

A Refreshing Salad

Fresh Produce...Yum!!
I don't know about where you shop, but the produce section of the grocery stores around here seem to have bland-tasting veggies. Today I decided to go to the local farmer's market here and get some locally-grown produce. I bought cucumbers, yellow squash, and jalapeƱo peppers. Most likely, they will not go into the same dish. But I have been known to be creative when cooking, LOL.
