Vegetable Peeler Salad Bowl

I found that using a vegetable peeler to cut
the fresh vegetables instead of using a knife
is a great way to present a differant looking
and surprisingly good tasting veggie salad.

Ingredients:
1 pound zucchini
1 pound summer squash
1 red onion, peeled and diced
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 cloves garlic
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
salt and black pepper to taste

Directions:
Cut zucchini and squash lengthwise into ribbons.
A vegetable peeler works great for this.
Try to get the ribbons about 1/4 to 1/8 inch thick.
Place ribbons in a resealable bag with olive oil,
lemon juice, onions and garlic then toss to mix.
Spray a wok or frypan with nonstick cooking spray.
Remove vegetables from bag and save remaining mixture.
Put the ribbons in the wok or frypan and cook
for about 10 minutes turning every 2-3 minutes.
Put vegetables in a large bowl and toss with
vinegar, salt and black pepper to taste.
