Discover the Sweet Surprise of Husk Tomato Salad

I love the Farmer's Market, especially those last-minute dashes to snag fresh produce just before closing time. On one such adventure, with only ten minutes before closing, we stumbled upon a real gem - the Husk Tomato. These tiny, paperbag-like wonders piqued our curiosity, and a fellow shopper couldn't stop raving about how amazing they were. Naturally, we had to try them, and what followed was a delightful discovery that led to our scrumptious Husk Tomato Salad.

Ingredients:

  • Spinach (2 cups) – vitamins, antioxidants

  • Zucchini (1 medium) – vitamins, minerals

  • Goat Cheese (1/4 cup, crumbled) – protein

  • Husk Tomatoes (1/2 cup) – vitamins

Instructions:

  1. Prep the Ingredients: Wash and chop the spinach, zucchini, and mushrooms. Crumble the goat cheese. Set aside the sprouts and Husk Tomatoes.

  3. Add the Husk Tomatoes: Gently fold in the star of the show, the Husk Tomatoes. Their natural sweetness will provide a refreshing contrast to the savory elements.

  4. Top with Goat Cheese: Sprinkle the crumbled goat cheese over the salad for a creamy and tangy finish.
