Peppers, Squash and Apples, Oh My!

How else do you think a Smart Snacker would spend her day off? Of course, at a Farmer's Market!...it's only one of my favorite things to do :) Check out some of the seasonal offerings...and try not to drool while your at!

I ended up with some great stuff...

• 4 tiny sweet potatoes (I think I'll make some roasted "disc's")
• 2 Cuke's
• 2 Field tomatoes
• 2 of those neat looking squash (the yellow/green one's- they were described as nutty and sweet!?)
• 3 cameo apples (I like sweet and crunchy)
• Fresh romaine lettuce
• The last of the Summer Mango Salsa
• Peach Salsa

So, as a result...my lunch today was a heavenly bed of vegetables that were all North Carolina grown...

• Fresh Romaine
• Cuke's
• Field Tomato
• Chunky Summer Mango Salsa (the last week it's offered)!

*My new thing is putting salsa's on salads- it's low calorie, fat free and adds an extra serving of vegetables or fruit!

For my protein, on the side, I had a small dish of homemade chili with lean beef and kidney beans (This was not very photogenic ;) )
