Noodle-less Summer Salad


Since I haven't made it to a farmers market since last week today's challenge was to make something out of what was left in the fridge. I was going to make pasta salad. I had a large zucchini and a summer squash and know that at raw foods restaurants sometimes they use those as noodles, so I decided I'd try that.

I started by grating them in the food processor,
put the broccoli in a pot of water and did a quick
blanch so it turned bright green
cut corn off the cob
cut up oinions
cut up fennel
then I dressed it with a whole lemon, salt, pepper, chopped fresh mint
put it in the fridge to rest for three hours

Then I stirred it up and served it over lettuce with some easy pickled cucumbers and radishes
