Eek! Summer is almost over and I’m in total denial! I’m still stuffing my face with watermelon, snap peas and fresh berries hoping that summer will stick around for a few more months.
Last week at the farmers market, while trying to absorb every last moment of summer, I couldn’t help but scoop up a few handfuls of locally grown rainbow carrots. Both kohlrabi and carrots are crunchy and slightly sweet so they’re perfect when paired with a fresh and slightly spicy dressing.
Harissa can be pretty spicy, so add just a little at a time or if you can handle the heat, add more for an extra kick.
