Fruit Salad
2 cups mixed
berries
1 nectarine, pitted and sliced
2 Tbs. orange juice
Fruit Sauce
3/4 cup blueberries,
raspberries, or strawberries
1 Tbs. fresh lemon juice
2-4 Tbs. sugar
Angel Food Cake
1/2 angel food
cake, cut into 6 pieces
To make the fruit
salad, combine fruit and orange juice in a bowl.
For the sauce, in
a blender or food processor, purée the 3/4 cup berries and the
lemon juice. Add sugar, one tablespoon at a time, until the desired degree
of sweetness is reached. Strain mixture through a fine sieve, pressing
with a rubber spatula to release the juices.
To assemble the dessert,
place a slice of angel food cake on each of 6 plates. Spoon a portion
of fruit on a corner of the cake slice, allowing some of the fruit to
spill down the side. Drizzle the fruit sauce over and around the fruit
salad.
Meet Ann Smith Lyons
We’ve all heard the stories: You have a once-in-a-lifetime event such as a wedding or major anniversary, you plan everything a year in advance, and something still goes wrong with the flowers. Ann Smith Lyons, Operations Manager for the Co-op Floral Department, will ensure that doesn’t happen.
Familiar With the Co-op's Communications Department?
If you have ever seen a Co-op sign or display, then you’ve seen the work of Art Director Katie Cahill. Katie and the Co-op Communications Department is responsible for promoting the cooperative difference showcased by the quality work our employees do each day. Didn’t think you’d find an Art Director at a food cooperative? Who can blame you! Sure, we have all the food departments you have come to expect in a food co-op. But there are a wide variety of other departments that help run our cooperative too — with people who are consumer-education and information experts, accountants, writers, graphic artists, computer nerds, MBAs, and environmental-sustainability gurus, just to name a few.
