When I had an impromptu cook-out on Sunday with two other families, I found I had all these ingredients from the last two weeks of the FDC. I was able to throw together a beautiful salad:
- 1 can red kidney beans (Trader Joe’s)
- 3 small white turnips – chopped
- 1 red radish – chopped
- 1 carrot – chopped
- about a 1/3 of a bunch parsley – chopped
- 1/2 a fresh onion – chopped
- 1/2 small cucumber – chopped
Toss, add dressing, enjoy! I usually use a Dijon mustard/lime or lemon juice/vinegar/cumin dressing that I concoct on the spot, so it is different each time. I added a few potatoes for the grill, beets and green beans as well. With what my friends provided, we had quite a feast.
