Got lazy this afternoon and thought i’d try making a smoothie of my Israeli salad ingredients rather than chopping them. Use fresh organically grown when you can, bring veggies to room temperature for best flavor!
Here’s the recipe:
- 1 medium home grown cucumber
- 1/2 vine ripened tomato
- 1/2 medium sized green pepper (or red, or yellow, or orange)
- 1 tablespoon dried parsley.
- 1/2 tsp olive oil
- 1 tsp salt
- pinch of cinnamon
Now, my smoothie maker isn’t real strong, so i put in about half the cucumber, then all of the tomato and whirred that until smooth, then added the rest as it made room. Oh, made about a pint of drinkable veggie smoothie. Now to be real Israeli Salad, you’d need to add a bit onion as well. I’ll do that next time.
Shabbat Shalom!
