Light meal
for hot day
Ontario salads offer
variation to summer meals.
Serve a light salad of a few
greens as an ac-
companiment to a meal, or
create a tasty main dish by
tossing a variety of Ontario
salad ingredients together
with a creamy dressing.
Marketing specialists at the
Ontario Ministry of
Agriculture and Food
suggest you'll have a great
selection when you shop for
fresh salad ingredients
throughout July and August.
The best salads begin with
a good base of Ontario let-
tuce. Ontario iceberg lettuce
is the most popular and
plentiful. Last year, more
than 24 million heads of
iceberg lettuce were
produced and marketed in
the province. Choose lettuce
that is firm, fresh looking
and free from wet spots and
brown edges.
