LEMON PEPPER ZUCCHINI SALAD

I eat a salad almost every night for or with my dinner.  I came across another zucchini salad recipe and thought I would try my own take on it.  It's kind of nice to switch it up sometimes, while still keeping with healthy vegetables.  Plus this is vegan and gluten free!  

2 zucchinis 

cherry tomatos (cut in half, used almost the whole crate)

pumpkin seeds (1/4 cup)

sliced almonds (1/4 cup)

fresh basil 

artichoke hearts (small jar)

for the "dressing" I squeezed half a lemon, half a lime, a little olive oil, and sprinkled with garlic and pepper.  

(I added some sea salt and feta cheese to Hunters) 

 It was delicious!  The two zucchinis made about 4-5 servings, so alter it as you please. 

A ( GLUTEN FREE ) CORN SALAD

I made this salad last week and we ate a little everyday until it was gone.  It was so good! 

You need: 

4 stalks fresh corn

1 red pepper 

1/2 onion 

1 lime

1 c. chopped walnuts

1/2 c. crumbled goat cheese (leave off the cheese to make it vegan as well)

cherry tomatos 

fresh basil

pepper and garlic to season 

This is such a quick and easy recipe.  While the corn boils, chop up all your other ingredients.  Let the corn cool and mix everything together.  Squeeze the lime and stir. Top with your goat cheese and seasonings.  It's best when it's been chilled for a bit.  Also, there's no messing this one up so if you want to add more or less of the above ingredients depending on your taste it will still be superb.
