What’s Cookin’?

As we head into the last week of summer, Bev and I wanted to share another yummy recipe. We thought this would be a great time to enjoy that end of summer produce!

Way back in June (doesn’t that seem so long ago???) we were at a get-together and a friend brought this amazing salad. And then within the same week our friend Rupa @salttheplate posted a very similar recipe on her blog. So we knew we had to share this!

Like the salad recipe we posted earlier in the summer, this is really simple and has very few ingredients. So it’s not only easy to make, but these ingredients also give it a variety of colors, textures and flavors. This combination might sound a bit odd, but trust us – it tastes awesome! We’ve also included Rupa’s version down below in case you’d like to try it.
