Veggie Madness

Veggie Madness

I created this recipe because I came home from the farmers market with a huge basket of veggies and needed to prepare them. This is an amazing recipe which can be adapted in many ways.  This is the basic recipe template, so for an Asian version I substitute walnut oil with sesame oil, omit the sunflower seeds and add 2 T. black sesame seeds, and switch the white wine vinegar to unseasoned white rice vinegar.  It is awesome!  Another absolutely fantastic version is to use walnut oil and substitute in Sicilian lemon balsamic vinegar.  I have to say this is my favorite, but you may not have Sicilian lemon vinegar in pantry, but I would strongly suggest purchasing it online.  I love to use all sorts of balsamic vinegars to attract different flavors, basically mix and match oils and vinegars.  You really can’t go wrong.
