Hello and happy summer. Dietitian Sarah here to put a sweet and seasonal spin on a traditional caprese salad. For this salad, I’m combining hydrating watermelon with lightly sweet blueberries, peppery arugula, vibrant tomatoes, and fresh Harmon’s mozzarella to give us a nice balance of sweet and savory flavors. And that combination of red, white, and blue makes it a perfect side for your next summer holiday get together. Preparation could not be easier. Simply rinse your arugula, berries, and tomatoes. Then cube your watermelon and mozzarella and cut your tomatoes in half. Throw everything into a bowl and just before serving, toss in your favorite vinegrett and enjoy. I love this salad because it’s loaded with fiber richch berries and greens, B vitamins like folate, fats, soluble vitamins like vitamins’s A and C that function as antioxidants to help protect against cellular damage, minerals like calcium and potassium that serve as electrolytes to help with fluid balance, but also support bone health and muscle and nerve function. And it’s also full of phyitochemicals like flavonoids and carotenoids that have been linked to antioxidant, anti-cancer, and anti-inflammatory effects. Wishing you a healthy and happy summer and happy shopping with Harmons.
