A Minty Balance to Summer

During our recent family vacation, my wife had an outstanding salad at a small restaurant in Sicily. It was simply arugula with a tuna steak and drizzled with olive oil. But what gave it this delicious, refreshing flavor was added mint. The cooling flavor of the mint along with the peppery leaf of arugula was tasty to say the least. I plan on adding it to salads when I can, its a great summer flavor! 

A little fruit for your fancy..

Do you ever find sometimes your sweet tooth is really.. well, sweet? There's a fun and tasty way to throw some sugar into lunch, dinner, or even as a light snack. Add dried fruit to your salad! Sunsweet's Berry Blend or Pineapple is a great alternative to the everyday salad, and its full of nutritious antioxidants. It will add just the right amount of sweet and tart to tantalize your tastebuds.
