Sautéed Cherry and Wilted Vegetable Salad The easiest and fastest way to shred these hearty vegetables and greens is using a mandoline. Feel free to try a different combination of vegetables in the salad; other hearty vegetables and greens such as cauliflower, arugula, bok choy, kohlrabi and radishes would work well. ServeS | 4 |

Sautéed Cherry and Wilted Vegetable Salad It’s finally cherry season – from May to June in Missouri – and one of my favorite ways to work with the fruit is grilling, roasting or simply sautéing it. The inherent tartness and sweetness of cherries provides an ideal foil for savory flavors; use the fresh fruit to make a glaze for chicken or as the base of a salad dressing. This wilted vegetable and sautéed cherry salad is more than a side dish: The shredded vegetables are very lightly cooked in a blend of fresh cherries, cherry juice and white balsamic vinegar, resulting in a salad full of crunch and naturally sweet flavor. The tartness of cherries pairs well with jammy, dry local Norton wines; throw this salad together, pour a glass of wine and make the most of warm spring weather by dining alfresco.
