New Orleans Vegetable Salad
Yield: 8 servings

1 1/3 c Red bell pepper
1 1/3 c Okra
1 1/3 c Cucumbers
1 1/3 c Yellow squash
1 1/3 c Celery
1 1/3 c Snow peas
1/2 c Herbal dressing of choice

Cube squash and microwave on high for about 8 minutes-- or lightly steam using conventional stove. Squash should be just-tender, not overly soft. Chop rest of vegetables into bite-sized pieces. In large bowl, combine all vegetables. Toss with salad dressing. Cover and refrigerate 2 to 4 hours; toss occasionally.

This recipe was tested using a butternut squash.

"This salad has a unique taste and is very refreshing. I loved the crunchy texture and overall freshness and flavour. The salad was easy to make and was very colourful and attractive to serve. I used a garlic/flax oil dressing which was light with a bit of a bite."

Allen Mayer, Tester
