I had a “some different kind of peanut salad” in mind when I was planning out healthy starters for a party, but what became of it was entirely on impulse and whatever I found in the refrigerator. This is a recipe born in the process and it simple and a zesty one too.
The fruits bowls are from my backyard – yes the cantaloupes. We harvested about eight cantaloupes this year; not a lot but the garden had been harassed and devoured by our bunnies, even before the plants got to grow.
Artichokes and chickpeas roasted with garlic and lightly coated with lemon and sesame. Not much going on here, but the salad does offer a full burst of flavor and nutrition.
This is one of those fun recipes which involves the kids in the kitchen. Summer is offering the bountiful fruits to cool us down. A trip to the Whole Food market last week made us load our cart with these delightful little cantaloupes they were offering four for a dollar that day.
