Gasparilla Party Foods

For those of you in the Tampa, Florida area, this weekend is a time for celebrating the yearly Pirate Invasion of our city.  It's also a time for sharing good food.  You may either be having guests at your home or will be invited to a friend's home. There is no reason to stress out over what to prepare.  We're here to help.

 

Joe and Son's is closed this Saturday, 130/16, for the Gasparilla events.  If you need any of our EVOO's and Balsamic Vinegars for your food preparations, be sure to come in on Thursday or Friday to do your shopping.

 

The first recipe is for an easy salad that takes just minutes to put together.

    

 

Edamame and Brocolli Slaw with Honey Ginger Balsamic

​

1 14 oz. bag of frozen shelled edamame, (thawed)
1 red bell pepper, diced
2 scallions, sliced on an angle

1 12 oz. bag of brocolli slaw

1/4 cup Joe and Son’s Chipotle Olive Oil

1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons Joe and Son’s Honey Ginger White Balsamic

2 tablespoons Joe and Son’s Dark Toasted Sesame Oil

2 tablespoons reduced sodium soy sauce

In a large bowl, toss together edamame, red bell pepper, scallions and brocolli slaw. In a jar with a tight fitting lid, pour Chipotle Olive Oil, Honey Ginger Balsamic, Sesame Oil and Soy Sauce. Replace lid and shake well until the dressing is well blended. Pour dressing over vegetables and toss to coat.


The next recipes are ones I've posted before, but they deserve another look.
