Blend Late Summer Produce to Make Sauces, Sips and Soups
(firmenpresse) - MISSION, KS -- (Marketwired) -- 08/06/15 -- (Family Features) Want to get the most out of late summer''s fresh fruits and vegetables? Look to your blender and spice rack to puree seasonal produce into refreshing sips, chilled soups and savory sauces.
"We''re in peak farmer''s market season with an abundance of juicy red tomatoes and leafy greens," says Chef Kevan Vetter of the McCormick Kitchens. "The same old veggie sides and salads can get boring as the summer rolls on, and blending allows you to enjoy produce in tasty new ways -- from using kale and avocado in a pasta sauce to a Greek yogurt dressing featuring pureed fresh cucumber."
Try putting a flavorful spin on a classic summer side with this Greek pasta salad. Blend fresh cucumbers with Greek yogurt, lemon juice and herbs like dill weed and Mediterranean oregano to create a creamy dressing. Toss with cooked pasta, veggies and feta.
