Availability of Fruit and Produce

Beety Carrot Juice

If you'd like to try a new twist on an old favorite ... add a beet the next time you make carrot juice in your juicer.

It add a beautiful red tinge to the drink and adds lots of healthy extras to your yummy drink.

Beets are a unique source of phytonutrients called betalains. Betanin and vulgaxanthin are the two best-studied betalains from beets, and both have been shown to provide antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and detoxification support. In a recent study from Italy, beets were shown to be an especially important contributor of two carotenoids in the overall diet: lutein and zeaxanthin. Although much of the recent carotenoid research has focused on beta-carotene, both the lutein and zeaxanthin found in beets are unique as health support molecules, particularly with respect to eye health.

Roasted Red Christy Sweet Pepper Salad

Roast desired number of peppers in oven until turning brown and skin is blistered, then place in a paper bag for 5 minutes. Peel and slice.

Add to taste: olive oil, vinegar, a little sugar, and fresh garlic. Optional: green olives, black olives, salami, fresh parmesan cheese.

This salad is perfectly pairied with our Pinot Grigio/Chardonnay Blend!

Thanks to Krueger Pepper Farms for this yummy recipe !
