Sweet Corn Salad with Peppers, Tomatoes, Artichokes and Basil
On Good Friday when most stores were closed, Whole Foods was open.
After a busy week, as usual we did not have much to eat at home. Thankfully we could visit Whole Foods for lunch. Among other things like roasted chicken, tuna salad, cheese, I bought a small serving of sweet corn salad and it was so delicious.
It was an inspiration for me to make one. The recipe I found had caramelized onions, peppers and tomatoes. I added some Julius brand artichokes from Pasquale Bros. as a personal touch. If you do not know already: Pasquale Bros. Ltd. is now run by Julius's mother who is the third generation doing so, and, they have a whole line of amazing products named after Julius, from olive oil to canned goods. A little Julius goes a long way as we all say!
What a great salad for Easter weekend! Tasty, colourful and oh so appetizing!
And the score: 8/10
Thank you for reading and please leave me some comments, love to hear from you!
Your version was even better than Whole Foods version--- the Julius artichokes were surely the special trick! :-) - JK
